Beaufort-Chukchi ice margin data from Seasat - Ice motion

The motion of sea ice in the summer and fall marginal zone of the Beaufort and Chukchi seas is observed by tracking ice features in sequential Seasat synthetic aperture radar images. Four examples of ice motion fields are shown and discussed with translation observation density finer than one observ...
