SAR image wave spectra to retrieve the thickness of grease-pancake sea ice using viscous wave propagation models

Abstract Young sea ice composed of grease and pancake ice (GPI), as well as thin floes, considered to be the most common form of sea ice fringing Antarctica, is now becoming the “new normal” also in the Arctic. A study of the rheological properties of GPI is carried out by comparing the predictions...
