Polar Sea Ice Mapping Using SeaWinds Data
Microwave remote sensing provides an excellent means for mapping polar sea ice extent. In this study, a new algorithm for polar sea ice mapping is developed for use with the SeaWinds instrument. The approach utilizes a priori information within the framework of Bayes detection to produce sea ice extent maps. Statistical models for sea ice and ocean are represented in histograms which are filter...
متن کاملTropical Pacific SST Drivers of Recent Antarctic Sea Ice Trends
A strengthening of the Amundsen Sea low from 1979 to 2013 has been shown to largely explain the observed increase inAntarctic sea ice concentration in the eastern Ross Sea and decrease in the Bellingshausen Sea. Here it is shown that while these changes are not generally seen in freely running coupled climate model simulations, they are reproduced in simulations of two independent coupled clima...
متن کاملPolar Sea-ice Classification Using Enhanced Resolution Nscat Data
| The NASA scatterometer (NSCAT) collected Ku-band scatterometer measurements from Sept. 1996 to June 1997. These data are converted high resolution six day images of the polar regions through the use of the scatterometer image reconstruction with lter (SIRF) algorithm. SIRF produces images of A and B where A is o at 40 incidence and B is the incidence angle dependence of . A simple four-dimens...
متن کاملPolar Sea Ice Monitoring Using HY-2A Scatterometer Measurements
A sea ice detection algorithm based on Fisher’s linear discriminant analysis is developed to segment sea ice and open water for the Ku-band scatterometer onboard the China’s Hai Yang 2A Satellite (HY-2A/SCAT). Residual classification errors are reduced through image erosion/dilation techniques and sea ice growth/retreat constraint methods. The arctic sea-ice-type classification is estimated via...
