Monitoring of Arctic Conditions from a Virtual Constellation of Synthetic Aperture Radar Satellites
LONG-TERM GOALS: Utilize a constellation of satellite radars to monitor the melting and freezing cycles of the Arctic Ocean north of 65 degrees. From difference maps of a timeseries of images deduce changes in ice extent, ice-type, and lead expansion/contraction with temporal resolutions from hours...
