High temporal resolution estimations of the Arctic sea ice albedo during the melting and refreezing periods of the years 2003-2011
Description: Here scientists show that a new microwave based sea ice albedo estimation method alleviates problems of optical instruments, offering new albedo data especially during the refreezing periods even on a daily basis. In this study investigators present detailed weekly and daily albedo progress over the whole Arctic sea ice area from June to September for the period of 2003-2011, estimated using the microwave method.
