The latest edition of the gold standard in sea ice references

In  the newly revised second edition of Sea Ice: Physics and Remote Sensing,  a team of distinguished researchers delivers an in-depth review of the  features and structural properties of ice, as well as the latest  advances in geophysical sensors, ice parameter retrieval techniques, and  remote sensing data. The book has been updated to reflect the latest  scientific developments in macro- and micro-scale sea ice research.

For  this edition, the authors have included high-quality photographs of  thin sections from cores of various ice types, as well as a  comprehensive account of all major field expeditions that have  systematically surveyed sea ice and its properties. Readers will also  find:
A thorough introduction to ice physics and physical processes,  including ice morphology and age-based structural featuresPractical  discussions of radiometric and radar-scattering observations from sea  ice, including radar backscatter and microwave emissionThe latest  techniques for the retrieval of sea ice parameters from space-borne and  airborne sensor dataNew chapters on sea ice thermal microwave emissions  and on the impact of climate change on polar sea ice
Perfect for  academic researchers working on sea ice, the cryosphere, and  climatology, Sea Ice: Physics and Remote Sensing will also benefit  meteorologists, marine operators, and high-latitude construction  engineers.
