Description
Summary:Scientific objectives and observational requirements relative to sea ice studies in the 1990's are discussed. The development of coupled ice-ocean-atmosphere models that provide information comparable to real data sets through interactive processes is discussed. A series of particular problems that would provide the basis for such a verification data set and which is amenable to satellite systems available or realizable over the next 20 years is presented.
