Sea ice and water vapor products from satellites

Deliverable D6.23 describes the work done mainly at the University of Bremen on satellite remote sensing of sea ice parameters and of total water vapor in the Arctic using microwave imagers (AMSR-E, AMSR2) and sounders (AMSU-B, MHS), i.e., work done in WP6 with links to data delivered through WP2.

We present and assess the data that have been prepared, improved, and exploited during the INTAROS project. This refers to data characterization, making the data accessible, creating new datasets, extended the time series from satellites.

This also includes data further developed in the framework of overlapping projects but not made available before INTAROS.

This document focus on how existing observations and data products can enhance the existing observation system through data exploitation.
