Contrasts in sea ice deformation and production in the Arctic seasonal and perennial ice zones.

Four years (1997–2000) of RADARSAT Geophysical Processor System (RGPS) data are used to contrast the sea ice deformation and production regionally, and in the seasonal (SIZ) and perennial (PIZ) ice zones. Ice production is of seasonal ice in openings during the winter. Three-day estimates of these q...
