An international observing system for long-term measurements in and around the Norwegian archipelago of Svalbard addressing Earth System Science questions
Congratulations to our Remote Sensing Working Group member from University of Oslo, Prof. Andreas Kääb for recently receiving the prestigious Louis Agassiz Medal-2019 at the European Geosciences Union (EGU), Austria.
An international research team led by ESA visited Svalbard last week in connection with the Copernicus Imaging Microwave Radiometry (CIMR) mission. This mission is developing sensors to measure Sea Ice Concentration, Sea Ice Extent and Sea Surface Temperature. These sensors will later be attached to a satellite to improve data on these parameters. Through the CIMRex campaign 2019 which just ended, the sensors have been tested out on ground to validate the measurements (Figure by CIMR mission.)
