Describes the latest remote sensing technologies used to detect ice hazards in the marine environment; map surface currents, sea-state and surface winds; study ice dynamics, over ice transportation, oil spill countermeasures, climate changes and ice reconnaisance. Includes such technologies as acoustic sensing, ice-thickness measurement, passive microwave remote sensing, ground wave and surface-based radars.
Properties of Snow and Ice (E. Lewis, et al.).
Acoustic and Seismic Sensing Techniques (D. Farmer & Y.Xie).
Ice-Thickness Measurement (J. Rossiter & J. Holladay).
Passive Microwave Systems (I. Rubinstein, et al.).
Active Microwave Systems (R. Raney).
Over-the-Horizon Radar (S. Srivastava & J. Walsh).
Surface-Based Radar: Noncoherent (E. Lewis, et al.).
Surface-Based Radar: Coherent (S. Haykin, et al.).
Operational Airborne Radars (R. Lowry).
Synthetic Aperture Radar Images of Sea Ice (C. Livingstone).
RADARSAT and Operational Ice Information (R. Raney & J.Falkingham).
Supplementary Topics and Future Diretions (S. Haykin & R.Raney).
