| Summary: | SISpec is a database containing spectroradiometric, snow and ancillary (environmental and meteorological) data acquired in polar environments. The project is the result of the co-operation of different expertise, and its main objective is to contribute to the knowledge of the interaction between microphysics characteristic of the snow cover and its reflection properties of the solar incident radiation and to study glacial environment and particularly to monitor the snow/ice covers by multispectral remote sensing data. Field surveys were performed in Antarctica, in the region where the Italian research station of Terra Nova Bay is located, the climatic characteristics and the low human impact allow to study snow/ice surfaces without impurities and with different characteristics with respect to those of the Arctic and the Alpine regions, where seasonal melting of the snow cover occur. |
