Upward Looking Sonar-based Measurements of Sea Ice and Waves
Abstract- With the recent reduction in summertime ice cover in the Arctic Ocean, year-long moored measurement programs require detailed information on sea ice thickness and topography data throughout most of the year, as well as ocean wave measurements during summer periods of major sea-ice retreat....
