Oceanographic measurements in the Robeson Channel have not been routinely Lincoln Sea to the Kennedy Channel, which opens into the Kane Basin. Northern location around 82 ∘ N, 60.5 ∘ W. The RobesonĬhannel is located between Greenland and Ellesmere Island (Canada), with its The information will be particularly interestingįor the possible applications of SAR constellation systems.įigure 1Map of the Robeson Channel and its surrounding areas. Monitoring aspects of sea ice cover in narrow water passages where the iceĬover is highly dynamic. Highlight the advantage of using the high-resolution daily SAR coverage in Hence the contour kept displacing northward). Is found that the arch's shape continued to adjust by rupturing ice piecesĪt the locations of cracks under the influence of the southward wind (and The development, obtained using the sequential SAR images, are presented. Started development on 24 January and matured on 1 February 2017. This paper also addresses theĭevelopment of the ice arch at the entry of the Robeson Channel, which Reveal the role of wind in ice floe drift. Trend is found between the change in wind and the change in ice drift speedĬomponents, along the length of the channel. Within the Robeson Channel and is clearly influenced by wind. On the other hand, the iceįloe drift is found to be about 4–5 times faster in the open-drift regime In thisĬase, the wind has more influence on the drift. The results show that the drift of iceįloes is very slow in the compact ice regime upstream of the RobesonĬhannel, unless the ice floe is surrounded by water or thin ice. Performed in the image sequence, and their speed was calculated and linked to The tracking of 39 selected ice floes was visually Kinematics of individual ice floes as they approach and then drift through
