Overview

The Earth's polar regions are among its least accessible locations. Remote sensing is therefore an especially useful and effective technique for observing and monitoring this environment. Remote Sensing of Snow and Ice explains why crysopheric observations are important and why remote sensing observations are desirable or even essential. It provides an outline of remote sensing techniques and methods in general as well as a thorough and up-to-date survey of the relevant remote sensing techniques that have been developed or are being developed now. The author discusses in detail the key physical properties of snow cover, land ice (glaciers, ice sheets, and ice shelves), sea, river, and lake ice, and icebergs.
