Description / Responsibilities
As a member of the remote sensing team, I will be working with ground-based radar instruments for sea ice and snow measurements. Also, I aim to collect snow and sea ice geophysical property samples that will help understand the melt season transitions and link the ground measurements to satellite products.
I am most excited about
I am excited to see and study melt ponds! I am also thrilled to be working with such a great team of scientists and be part of this unique expedition. Operating instruments on sea ice during the melt season is quite challenging but it is an unprecedented opportunity for unique observations.
