Multisensor data fusion of operational sea ice observations
Multisensor data fusion (MDF) is a process/technique of combining observations from multiple sensors to provide a more robust, accurate and complete description of the concerned object, environment or process. In this paper we introduce a new MDF method, multisensor optimal data fusion (MODF), to fu...

Multisensor data fusion (MDF) is a process/technique of combining observations from multiple sensors to provide a more robust, accurate and complete description of the concerned object, environment or process. In this paper we introduce a new MDF method, multisensor optimal data fusion (MODF), to fuse different operational sea ice observations around Svalbard. The overall MODF includes regridding, univariate multisensor optimal data merging (MODM), multivariate check of consistency, and generation of new variables. For MODF of operational sea ice observations around Svalbard, the AMSR2 sea ice concentration (SIC) is firstly merged with the Norwegian Meteorological Institute ice chart. Then the daily SMOS sea ice thickness (SIT) is merged with the weekly CS2SMOS SIT to form a daily CS2SMOS SIT, which is further refined to be consistent with the SIC through consistency check. Finally sea ice volume (SIV) and its uncertainty are calculated based on the merged SIC and fused SIT. The fused products provide an improved, united, consistent and multifaceted description for the operational sea ice observations, they also provide consistent descriptions of sea ice edge and marginal ice zone. We note that uncertainties may vary during the regridding process, and therefore correct determination of the observation uncertainties is critically important for MDF.
