A combined remote sensing/modelling approach for the retrieval of sea ice thickness in East Antarctica ...
Sea ice thickness is an essential parameter for the estimation of energy, mass and momentum exchange and sea ice mass balance in the Southern Hemisphere. In situ methods of estimating the ice thickness distribution cannot provide the necessary areal coverage, while the coarse resolution of numerical...
