MELT EXTENT AND PATTERN IN GREENLAND AND THE ANTARCTIC PENINSULAR FROM ENVISAT ASAR GLOBAL MONITORING MODE

Melt extent over ice sheets and ice shelves has previously been measured at low spatial resolution with microwave scatterometer and radiometer data. Here we employ the Global Monitoring Mode of Envisat ASAR to measure melt extent in Greenland and the Antarctic
