The overall goal of this collaborative effort is to provide the observational and theoretical foundation for ice dynamics in a high resolution sea ice model, PIPs 3.0, based on the concepts of sliplines and granular plates and the use of direct field measurements and remote sensing assets. Prepared in collaboration with the Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, Seattle, WA.
