氷のリモートセンシング(概説)

抄録

In the fields of cryospheric sciences, there is a wide variety of research topics related to satellite remote sensing of ice. Major requirements of these researches are to derive changes in the surface features, extent and thickness of various ice, such as continental ice sheets, glaciers and sea ice, from satellite informations. The present status and future problems of the remote sensing of ice are reviewed as an introduction of this special issue.
