• Comparing SAR based short time-lag cross-correlation and Doppler derived sea ice drift velocities 

      Kræmer, Thomas; Johnsen, Harald; Brekke, Camilla; Engen, Geir (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2017-11-23)
      This paper shows initial results from estimating Doppler radial surface velocities (RVLs) over Arctic sea ice using the Sentinel-1A (S1A) satellite. Our study presents the first quantitative comparison between ice drift derived from the Doppler shifts and drift derived using time-series methods over comparable time scales. We compare the Doppler-derived ice velocities with global positioning system ...

      The Sea surface KInematics Multiscale monitoring (SKIM) satellite mission is designed to explore ocean surface current and waves. This includes tropical currents, notably the poorly known patterns of divergence and their impact on the ocean heat budget, and monitoring of the emerging Arctic up to 82.5°N. SKIM will also make unprecedented direct measurements of strong currents, from boundary currents ...
