Observing Larsen C ice-shelf using ISRO's SCATSAT-1 data
ISRO's SCATSAT-1 is a miniature satellite which serves as a continuity mission to the bygone Oceansat-2. Three important parameters from SCATSAT-1 are made available through the Meteorological & Oceanographic Satellite Data Archival Centre (MOSDAC), Space Applications Centre-ISRO. They are...
