Radar observation of an Arctic polynya under summer conditions
A study is made of data from the ERS-1 SAR acquired from the North East Water polynya and the Greenland Sea in the period July--August 1993 with the objective of studying sea ice under summer conditions, i.e. the microwave signatures and the dynamics of the ice. NOAA AVHRR images are used as a compl...
