Remote Sensing for Monitoring Ice Sample Clauses

Remote Sensing for Monitoring Ice. Concentration Sea ice concentration is routinely imaged using satellites due to its ability to monitor large spatial areas. Passive microwave and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sensors are preferred over optical imagery because of their ability to see through clouds and lack of reliance on solar illumination. The CIS relied on RADARSAT-1, a SAR sensor, for ice charting until its decommissioning in 2013. The Canadian Ice Service currently relies predominantly on RADARSAT-2. 25 RADARSAT-2 can send and receive combinations of horizontal and vertical polarizations, which refer to the orientation of the electromagnetic waves sent and received by the sensor. The main polarizations used for sea ice monitoring with RADARSAT-2 are (1) horizontal transmit and horizontal receive (HH), and (2) horizontal transmit and vertical receive (HV). The HV band has been shown to be less sensitive to the incidence angle of the satellite, which is useful for sea ice monitoring during the melt season. The combination of both HH and HV channels together has been shown to better distinguish between 30 sea ice concentrations than either channel alone (Xxxxxxxx, 2014). RADARSAT-1, on the other hand, could only receive HH or VV. Only HH was used for sea ice monitoring in this study, although dual-pol (HH/HV) are used operationally.
