Abstract:
This dataset contains three airborne laserscanner data products (1: Digital Elevation Model of the ice/snow surface, 2: topographic surface roughness, 3: Laser reflectivity map) acquired over Atka Bays landfast sea ice during the Antarctic season of 2022/23 (date of aquisition: December 5th, 2022). The data set covers significant parts of Atka Bay focusing on areas where icebergs were embedded in the landfast sea ice. The scientific focus was to investigate the influence of iceberg on wind-driven snow distribution and slush formation on Antarctic landfast sea ice. The data are available as Geotiff files and have the following coordinate system: EPSG:3031 - WGS 84 / Antarctic Polar Stereographic.
