Physical characteristics of melt ponds
Improving the predictive capabilities for the development of Arctic sea ice cover strongly depends on a better understanding of the ice-albedo feedback mechanism. Using a combination of multi- and hyperspectral airborne imagery, field spectroscopy and bio-optical modelling we aim to quantify melt po...

Improving the predictive capabilities for the development of Arctic sea ice cover strongly depends on a better understanding of the ice-albedo feedback mechanism.

The main goal is to develop a semi-automated application for melt pond analysis for airborne hyperspectral instruments.
