Development of Geo-KOMPSAT-2A Algorithm for Sea-Ice Detection Using Himawari-8/AHI Data
Sea ice is an important meteorological factor affecting the global climate system, but it is difficult to observe in sea ice ground truth data because of its location mainly at high latitudes and in polar regions. Accordingly, sea-ice detection research has been actively conducted using satellites,...

Sea ice is an important meteorological factor affecting the global climate system, but it is difficult to observe in sea ice ground truth data because of its location mainly at high latitudes and in polar regions. Accordingly, sea-ice detection research has been actively conducted using satellites, since the 1970s. Polar-orbiting and geostationary satellites are used for this purpose; notably, geostationary satellites are capable of real-time monitoring of specific regions. In this paper, we introduce the Geo-KOMPSAT-2A (GK-2A)/Advanced Meteorological Imager (AMI) sea-ice detection algorithm using Japan Meteorological Agency (JMA) Himawari-8/Advanced Himawari Imager (AHI) data as proxy data. The GK-2A/AMI, which is Korea Meteorological Administration (KMA)’s next-generation geostationary satellite launched in December 2018 and Himawari-8/AHI have optically similar channel data, and the observation area includes East Asia and the Western Pacific. The GK-2A/AMI sea-ice detection algorithm produces sea-ice data with a 10-min temporal resolution, a 2-km spatial resolution and sets the Okhotsk Sea and Bohai Sea, where the sea ice is distributed during the winter in the northern hemisphere.
