Remote Sensing of the Cryosphere
Remote Sensing of the Cryosphere
Session ID#: 254676
Session Description:
The spatial extent of the Cryosphere – ice sheets and ice caps, glaciers, icebergs, sea ice, lake ice, permafrost, and seasonal snow – is vast but incredibly dynamic, evolving over hourly to millennial time scales and everything in between. Remotely-sensed data, including those collected from uncrewed aerial systems, crewed aircraft, and satellites, are widely used to address the observational challenges associated with such a complex component of the Earth system. This session welcomes submissions that focus primarily on remote sensing of the Cryosphere. Topics can include scientific insights gained through remotely-sensed data analysis, methods development, new processing techniques (e.g., data fusion, machine learning, AI), integration with field data and/or numerical modeling, etc. With a goal to promote cross-disciplinary exchange, we welcome submissions highlighting different parts or processes within the Cryosphere, and across the methodology and sensor landscapes.
