DATA DESCRIPTION
The Eulerian Ice Motion Products found at this location were produced
by tracking common features on a 200km-by-200km grid centered at the SHEBA camp.
A cell spacing of 5km results in a 41-by-41 element grid.
The ice motion products cover the
time periods from November 1, 1997 through December 25, 1997 and from
January 10, 1998 through October, 1998.
The Animation of Deformation shows the deformed grid of each pair of Radarsat
images during the time periods described above. The SHEBA camp location is
centered upon each deformation image. Cell area changes are color-coded.
These Eulerian grids show locations and activities of leads around the SHEBA
camp. Also included on each animation frame are a displacement vector showing
the motion of the camp during the image-pair time span, a timeline showing
the start and end image identification and day-of-year of both images, and a
basin-wide map showing the location of the camp.
ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
We wish to thank Harry Stern
of the SHEBA Project Office, Polar Science Center, University of
Washington, for ordering the image data and for providing the image pairing information and the corresponding
SHEBA camp locations in the Radarsat images.
