and Aral seas from active and passive microwave satellite data. Polar Res., 22, 43-50.
The paper discusses time and space variations of ice extent in the
Caspian and Aral seas during the last decade (1992-2002). It uses
synergy of data from active (radar altimeter) and passive (radiometer)
microwave nadir-looking instruments onboard the TOPEX/Poseidon
satellite. The proposed approach is substantiated and validated using
both in situ and satellite imagery data for the Caspian Sea. The
results indicate significant spatial and temporal variability of ice
conditions, with a significant decrease of both the duration of ice
season and ice extent during the last four winters (1998-2002). The
TOPEX/Poseidon-derived time series of sea ice extent are very valuable
in view of the fragmentary and mostly unpublished data on ice
conditions on the Caspian and Aral seas since the mid-1980s.
