The Risk Index Outcome (RIO) is a critical component of the Polar Operational Limit Assessment Risk Indexing System (POLARIS) developed by the International Maritime... -
Glacier velocity maps over 2014-2019 on the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska
We used the Python Glacier Evolution Model (PyGEM) to model monthly glacier-wide climatic mass balance and runoff for all glaciers on the Peninsula from 2005 to 2019. It... -
Oil slicks, look-alikes and other remarkable SAR signatures in Sentinel-1 ima...
Spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has been applied to detect oil slicks. Previous studies applied machine learning and deep learning techniques to automate oil slick... -

Pan-Arctic thermokarst lagoon distribution, area and classification
Thermokarst lagoons develop in permafrost lowlands along the ice-rich Arctic coast when thermokarst lakes or basins with bottom elevations at or below sea level are breached by... -
Sea ice lead fractions from SAR-derived sea ice divergence in the Transpolar ...
Leads and fractures in sea ice play a crucial role in the heat and gas exchange between the ocean and the atmosphere, impacting atmospheric, ecological, and oceanic processes.... -
Vector dataset of manually mapped retrogressive thaw slumps from very high-re...
We present a comprehensive inventory of retrogressive thaw slumps (RTS) for six study sites in the Russian High Arctic covering an area of more than 600 km². The sites are... -
High-resolution sea ice drift and deformation from sequential SAR images in t...
Sea ice deformation is a crucial process in the polar climate system and, thus, it is an important cross-cutting theme for all disciplines of the interdisciplinary research... -
Spatial extent of thermokarst lagoons along pan-Arctic coasts - an upscaling ...
Along the ice rich pan-Arctic permafrost coasts thermokarst lagoons are a common landscape feature. These lagoons form when thermokarst lakes are inundated permanently or... -
