Theme 5 (Cryosphere and Polar Oceans) Sea Ice Elevation and Thickness and Ice Sheet Elevation Change: ENVISAT Radar Altimeter 2 (RA-2) 5-year Time Series (2002-2008) of Ice Thickness data
Theme 5 - Cryosphere and Polar Oceans - of the National Centre for Earth Observation (NCEO) is aimed at resolving uncertainties in future climate and sea-level arising from behaviour of the cryosphere. Under this theme, 5 year time series Ice thickness data used by Katharine Giles, Seymour Laxon and Andy Ridout in their paper "Circumpolar thinning of Arctic sea ice following the 2007 record ice extent minimum" (Geophysical Research Letters, Vol. 35, L22502, doi:10.1029/2008GL035710, 2008) are presented.
