Abstract: | The main results of processing the long-term satellite data in different spectral ranges and with different spatial resolutions
used to map Arctic sea ice parameters are presented. The advantages of the methods developed in order to estimate these parameters
on the basis of microwave sensor measurements are indicated. The specific features of the long-term dynamics of the main sea
ice geophysical parameters (the sea ice area and distribution during the summer minimum, ice age structure and thickness,
multiyear ice concentration, times of ice melt and freeze onset, etc.) are presented. The effect of changes in sheet ice on
the status of large Arctic mammals is estimated. |
