Integrated use of new microwave satellite data for improved sea ice observations (IMSI). Final report
The overall goal of IMSI is to explore and test methods for use of new satellite earth observation data in sea ice monitoring and improve the utilisation of these observations in a wider user community. To reach these objectives IMSI consists of four major tasks: 1. Study of user requirements to def...
