Beaufort-Chukchi seas summer and fall ice margin data from Seasat: conditions with similarities to the Labrador Sea

The margin of the sea-ice pack of the Beaufort and Chukchi seas is examined using the microwave data from Seasat taken during the summer to early fall, July 4 through October 8, 1978, and the observations are compared to the analogous observations taken in LIMEX'87. The sensors used are synthetic-aperture radar (SAR), the Seasat-A scatterometer system, and the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer. >
