As discussed in the first part of this review paper, Remote Sensing (RS) systems are great
tools to study various oceanographic parameters. Part I of this study described different …

Fully polarimetric (FP) and compact polarimetry (CP) modes are advanced technologies of
synthetic aperture radar (SAR). Compared to the parameters available from traditional …

The topic of satellite remote sensing of lake ice has gained considerable attention in recent
years. Optical satellite data from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer …

Automated classification of sea-ice types in Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery is
complicated by the class-dependent decrease of backscatter intensity with Incidence Angle …

Changes to ice cover on lakes throughout the northern landscape has been established as
an indicator of climate change and variability, expected to have implications for both human …

Sea ice monitoring plays a vital role in secure navigation and offshore activities. Synthetic
aperture radar (SAR) has been widely used as an effective tool for sea ice remote sensing …

High-resolution aerial photographs of Arctic region are a great source for different sea ice
feature recognition, which are crucial to validate, tune, and improve climate models. Melt …

Map** different types of sea ice that form, grow, and melt in polar oceans is essential for
ship** navigation, climate change modeling, and local community safety. Currently, ice …

We introduce the fully automatic design of a numerically optimized decision-tree algorithm
and demonstrate its application to sea ice classification from SAR data. In the decision tree …

Accurate river ice map** is crucial for predicting and managing floods caused by ice jams
and for the safe operation of hydropower and water resource facilities. Although satellite …
