Arctic Sea Ice Processes

Abstract

The goal of the proposed research is to use the scale-invariant (or fractal) nature of sea ice to identify some objective parameter or set of parameters derivable from AVHRR satellite imagery that will aid in the development of a description of the sea ice rheology that is valid for spatial scales of 1 20 km.
