Description

This data set contains spot elevation measurements with corresponding waveforms of Greenland, Arctic, and Antarctic sea ice. The data complement the IceBridge ATM L1B Near-Infrared Waveforms data, which are measured at near-infrared wavelength. The data were acquired as part of aircraft survey campaigns funded by Operation IceBridge.
