Best Practices in Crafting the Calibrated, Enhanced-Resolution Passive-Microwave EASE-Grid 2.0 Brightness Temperature Earth System Data Record.
(2018)
Since the late 1970s, satellite passive-microwave brightness temperatures have been
a mainstay in remote sensing of the cryosphere. Polar snow and ice-covered ocean and land
surfaces are especially sensitive to climate ...
The Best of Both Worlds: Connecting Remote Sensing and Arctic Communities for Safe Sea Ice Travel.
(2020)
Northern communities are increasingly interested in technology that provides information about the sea ice environment for travel purposes. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) remote sensing is widely used to observe sea ice ...
Polar Region Bathymetry: Critical Knowledge for the Prediction of Global Sea Level Rise.
(2022)
The ocean and the marine parts of the cryosphere interact directly with, and are
affected by, the seafloor and its primary properties of depth (bathymetry) and shape
(morphology) in many ways. Bottom currents are largely ...
Directory of European Polar Research funding programmes.
(EU-PolarNet, Bremerhaven, Germany, 2022)
The polar regions are sentinels of climate change and human resilience and they are also a proven bastion for international cooperation in research and nature protection. European researchers have made significant contributions ...
White Paper on European Polar infrastructure access and interoperability, including an infrastructure implementation plan for the European Polar Research Programme.
(EU-PolarNet, Bremerhaven, Germany, 2020)
European nations operate world-class research infrastructures in the Arctic and Antarctic, which result from a long history of polar research and significant investments made by national polar programmes. The European Polar ...
On the Benefit of Current and Future ALPS Data for Improving Arctic Coupled Ocean-Sea Ice State Estimation.
(2017)
Autonomous and Lagrangian platforms and sensors (ALPS) have revolutionized the way the subsurface ocean is observed. The synergy between ALPS-based observations and coupled ocean-sea ice state and parameter estimation as ...
Mapping Arctic Bottomfast Sea Ice Using SAR Interferometry.
(2018)
Bottomfast sea ice is an integral part of many near-coastal Arctic ecosystems with implications for subsea permafrost, coastal stability and morphology. Bottomfast sea ice is also of great relevance to over-ice travel by ...
