Tasks

We will deploy a 4-channel microwave radiometer observing 0.5-2 GHz onto the ice floe as part of the remote sensing team. Using this Ultra-wideband microwave radiometry, we hope to improve sea ice remote sensing.

Science Questions

How can we improve the remote sensing of sea ice properties from space?

What are you most excited about the expedition?

The opportunity to acquire an extensive dataset supported by an impressive amount of ice information provided by other members of the team.

What do you love most about the Arctic?

The opportunity to improve remote sensing of this amazing part of our planet.
