NASA’s Operation IceBridge, the largest airborne survey of Earth’s polar ice, uses remote sensing techniques like LiDAR (light detection and ranging), snow- and ice-penetrating radar, high resolution digital imaging, and infrared cameras to collect information on our changing ice sheets and sea ice. Several times each year a science team and flight crew head out on month-long campaigns in
PolarConnect event with Mark Goldner and the REU students and PI's that are in Norway. Three REU students presented on their experiments. A good introduction to the research questions and the area.
