A Review on Sea Ice Floe Analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sea ice mapping is one of the important applications of remote sensing technology. Remote sensing is safe navigation for ships where ice caps are form and it is essential to understand the climate conditions of the oceans. The main function of ice mapping is to generate the maps of sea ice according to their geographical location. This paper reviews most of the recent research work on Sea ice floe and various algorithms are discussed in the Literature.

Sea-Ice Floes Identification and Detection using Matlab
An unmanned aerial vehicle was used as a mobile sensor platform to collect sea-ice features at NyÅlesund in early May 2011, and several image processing algorithms have been applied to samples of sea-ice images to extract useful information about sea ice. The sea-ice statistics given by the floe size distribution, being an important parameter for climate and waveand structure-ice analysis, is c...
متن کاملA prognostic model of the sea-ice floe size and thickness distribution
Sea ice exhibits considerable seasonal and longerterm variations in extent, concentration, thickness, and age, and is characterized by a complex and continuously changing distribution of floe sizes and thicknesses, particularly in the marginal ice zone (MIZ). Models of sea ice used in current climate models keep track of its concentration and of the distribution of ice thicknesses, but do not a...
متن کاملSea ice floe size distribution in the marginal ice zone: Theory and numerical experiments
To better describe the state of sea ice in the marginal ice zone (MIZ) with floes of varying thicknesses and sizes, both an ice thickness distribution (ITD) and a floe size distribution (FSD) are needed. In this work, we have developed a FSD theory that is coupled to the ITD theory of Thorndike et al. (1975) in order to explicitly simulate the evolution of FSD and ITD jointly. The FSD theory in...
متن کاملWind and wave influences on sea ice floe size and leads in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas during the summerfall transition 2014
Sea ice floe size distribution and lead properties in the Beaufort and Chukchi Seas are studied in the summer-fall transition 2014 to examine the impact on the sea ice cover from storms and surface waves. Floe size distributions are analyzed from MEDEA, Landsat8, and RADARSAT-2 imagery, with a resolution span of 1–100 m. Landsat8 imagery is also used to identify the orientation and spacing of l...
متن کاملGraph-based Method for Multitemporal Segmentation of Sea Ice Floes from Satellite Data
Automated segmentation of the sea ice evolution would allow scientists studying climate change to build accurate models of the sea ice meltdown process, which is a sensitive climate indicator. In this paper, we propose a novel approach which uses shape analysis and graph-based optimization for segmentation of a multiyear ice floe from time series of satellite images. Differently of the state-of...
