Remote sensing of winter snow and soil moisture status using airborne Ku and L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar observations
Principal Investigator: Kelly, Richard
Licensed Year(s): 2024
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No. 5877. The main objectives are: 1. to fly a novel Ku- and L-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system over snow covered tundra land, lakes and sea ice in winter to obtain unique radar observations of these environments; 2. to use collected field measurements acquired by J. Thériault's project (license #5743) at Trail Valle...


IceBird Winter 2023
Principal Investigator: Krumpen, Thomas
Licensed Year(s): 2023
Summary: This licence has been issued for the scientific research application No.5486. IceBird Winter 2023 is part of a long-term sea ice observation program within the IceBird aircraft campaign series. IceBird was initiated in 2018 with the objective to ensure the long-term availability of a unique data record of direct sea-ice thickness observations to understand the role of the sea ice component for ...


Ice Bird 2019
Principal Investigator: Hendricks, Stefan
Licensed Year(s): 2019
Summary: Fundamental sea ice properties such as volume and surface characteristics change significantly within and between years. Arctic sea ice extent and thickness have undergone dramatic changes in the past decades. The strength of ice-albedo feedback mechanism depends on area-averaged ice concentration, snow and ice thickness and in summer significantly on melt pond fraction. The sea ice retreat in ...


Polar Airborne Measurements and Arctic Regional Climate Model Simulation Project (PAMARCMIP)
Principal Investigator: Herber, Andreas
Licensed Year(s): 2017
Summary: The observational platform will be a single aircraft, the Alfred Wegener Institute (AWI) POLAR 5, a modified DC-3 aircraft. Objectives of this project are to: 1. determine the actual state of the sea ice thickness distribution in the western Arctic and what are trends of the Sea Ice thinning; 2. characterize the actual sea ice thickness distribution and identify trends in the sea ice thickne...
