Submit your abstracts by 29 July at: https://www.agu.org/Fall-Meeting/2020/Present/Abstracts
Title: C030, Remote Sensing of the Cryosphere: Sea Ice
Confirmed Invited Presenters:
Kent Moore, University of Toronto
Julienne Stroeve, National Snow and Ice Data Center
Description:
Sea ice is at the ocean-atmosphere interface and it plays a major role in the Earth's climate system. Sea ice changes in the Arctic and Antarctic occur at large and small spatial scales, and with a wide temporal window from seconds to years. Remote sensing methods can provide data at all these scales and the range of different techniques available (e.g., microwave, visible, and infrared; active and passive; polarimetric, interferometric and hyperspectral, etc.) has made remote sensing a fundamental tool for the study of sea ice and its geophysical properties. This session aims to share recent progress made in the development and application of remote sensing techniques to study sea ice. In particular, we would encourage submissions from MOSAiC-related research as a particular example of remote sensing analysis, and how remote sensing can advance model evaluations, process studies, and interdisciplinary investigation at the ocean, cryosphere, and atmosphere interface.

We're looking forward to a great session this fall. Thank you.
