is directly or
partly responsible for the following sub-tasks:
Ice
types and properties
Sea ice parameters
Surface temperature from passive microwave sensors
Emissivity studies:
Sea ice microwave emissivity from empirical studies (from satellite data).
Sea ice and snow microwave emissivity model with thermodynamic module validated with field data, (field work with microwave radiometers)
Snow parameters on sea ice, sensitivity study.
Ice dynamics from satellite observations: both velocity and deformation fields from:
Medium resolution ice motion: from ENVISAT ASAR Global Monitoring Mode data
Sea ice parameters
Surface temperature from passive microwave sensors
