Developing Remote Sensing Capabilities for Meter-Scale Sea Ice Properties

The overarching goal of this work is to develop and validate remote sensing techniques to track sea ice physical properties of geophysical importance that occur below the pixel size of most global-coverage satellite assets, particularly melt ponds. Prepared in collaboration with the Graduate School...
