'''Sea ice concentration''' is a useful variable for [[climatology|climate]] | |||
scientists and nautical [[navigators]]. It is defined as the area of | |||
[[sea ice]] relative to the total at a given point in the [[ocean]]. | |||
This article will deal primarily with its determination from [[remote sensing]] measurements. | |||
==Significance== | |||
Sea ice concentration helps determine a number of other important climate | |||
variables. Since the [[albedo]] of ice is much higher than that of water, | |||
ice concentration will regulate [[insolation]] in the polar oceans. | |||
When combined with [[sea ice thickness|ice thickness]], it determines | |||
several other important [[flux]]es between the air and sea, | |||
such as salt and fresh-water fluxes between the polar oceans | |||
(see for instance [[bottom water]]) as well as | |||
[[heat flux|heat transfer]] between the atmosphere. | |||
Maps of sea ice concentration can be used to determine | |||
[[Measurement of sea ice#ice area|ice area]] and | |||
[[Measurement of sea ice#ice extent|ice extent]], both of which are important | |||
markers of [[climate change]]. | |||
Ice concentration charts are also used by navigators to determine | |||
potentially passable regions—see [[icebreaker]]. | |||
==Methods== | |||
===In situ=== | |||
Measurements from ships and aircraft are based on simply calculating | |||
the relative area of ice versus water visible within the scene. | |||
This can be done using photographs or by eye. | |||
In situ measurements are used to validate remote sensing | |||
measurements. | |||
===SAR interferometry and visible=== | |||
Both [[synthetic aperture radar]] and visible sensors (such as [[Landsat]]) | |||
are normally high enough resolution that each pixel is simply classified | |||
as a distinct surface type, i.e. water versus ice. The concentration can then be | |||
determined by counting the number of ice pixels in a given area which | |||
is useful for validating concentration estimates from lower resolution | |||
instruments such as microwave radiometers. Since SAR images are normally | |||
monochrome and the [[backscatter]] of ice can vary quite considerably, | |||
classification is normally done based on texture using groups of | |||
pixels—see [[pattern recognition]]. | |||
Visible sensors have the disadvantage of being quite weather sensitive—images are obscured by clouds—while SAR sensors, especially in the | |||
higher resolution modes, have a limited coverage and must be pointed. | |||
This is why the tool of choice for determining ice concentration is | |||
often a passive microwave sensor. | |||

===Microwave radiometry=== | |||
All warm bodies emit electro-magnetic radiation: see [[thermal radiation]]. | |||
Since different objects will emit differently at different frequencies, | |||
we can often determine what type of object we are looking at based on its emitted | |||
radiation—see [[spectroscopy]]. This principle underlies all ''passive'' | |||
microwave sensors and most passive infrared sensors. Passive is used in the | |||
sense that the sensor only measures radiation that has been emitted by other | |||
objects but does not emit any of its own. | |||
(A SAR sensor, by contrast, is ''active''.) [[SSMR]] and [[SSMI]] radiometers were flown on the [[Nimbus program]] and [[Defense Meteorological Satellite Program|DMSP]] series of satellites. | |||
Because clouds are translucent in the microwave regime, especially | |||
at lower frequencies, microwave radiometers are quite weather insensitive. | |||
Since most microwave radiometers operate along a [[polar orbit]] with | |||
a broad, sweeping scan, full ice maps of the polar regions where | |||
the swaths are largely overlapping can usually be obtained within one day. | |||
This frequency and reliability comes at the cost of a poor resolution: | |||
the angular [[field of view]] of an [[Antenna (radio)|antenna]] is directly | |||
[[proportionality (mathematics)|proportional]] to the [[wavelength]] | |||
and inversely proportional to the effective [[aperture]] area. | |||
Thus we need a large deflector dish to compensate for a low frequency | |||
.<ref name="Ulaby_etal1986"/> | |||
Most ice concentration algorithms based on microwave radiometry | |||
are predicated on the dual observation that: 1. different surface types | |||
have different, strongly clustered, microwave signatures and | |||
2. the radiometric signature at the instrument head is a linear | |||
combination of that of the different surface types, with the weights | |||
taking on the values of the relative concentrations. | |||
If we form a vector space from each of the instrument channels | |||
in which all but one of the signatures of the different surface types | |||
are linearly independent, then it is straightforward to solve for | |||
the relative concentrations: | |||
:<math> | |||
\vec T_b = \vec T_{b0} + \sum_{i=1}^n(\vec T_{bi} - \vec T_{b0})C_i | |||
</math> | |||
where <math>\vec T_b</math> is the radiometric signature at the | |||
instrument head (normally measured as a [[brightness temperature]]), | |||
<math>\vec T_{b0}</math> is the signature of the nominal | |||
background surface type (normally water), | |||
<math>\vec T_{bi}</math> is the signature of the ''i''th | |||
surface type while ''C<sub>i</sub>'' are the relative | |||
concentrations. | |||

Sea ice concentration is a useful variable for climate scientists and nautical navigators. It is defined as the area of sea ice relative to the total at a given point in the ocean. This article will deal primarily with its determination from remote sensing measurements.
Significance
Sea ice concentration helps determine a number of other important climate variables. Since the albedo of ice is much higher than that of water, ice concentration will regulate insolation in the polar oceans. When combined with ice thickness, it determines several other important fluxes between the air and sea, such as salt and fresh-water fluxes between the polar oceans (see for instance bottom water) as well as heat transfer between the atmosphere. Maps of sea ice concentration can be used to determine ice area and ice extent, both of which are important markers of climate change.
Ice concentration charts are also used by navigators to determine potentially passable regions—see icebreaker.
Methods
In situ
Measurements from ships and aircraft are based on simply calculating the relative area of ice versus water visible within the scene. This can be done using photographs or by eye. In situ measurements are used to validate remote sensing measurements.
SAR interferometry and visible
Both synthetic aperture radar and visible sensors (such as Landsat) are normally high enough resolution that each pixel is simply classified as a distinct surface type, i.e. water versus ice. The concentration can then be determined by counting the number of ice pixels in a given area which is useful for validating concentration estimates from lower resolution instruments such as microwave radiometers. Since SAR images are normally monochrome and the backscatter of ice can vary quite considerably, classification is normally done based on texture using groups of pixels—see pattern recognition.
Visible sensors have the disadvantage of being quite weather sensitive—images are obscured by clouds—while SAR sensors, especially in the higher resolution modes, have a limited coverage and must be pointed. This is why the tool of choice for determining ice concentration is often a passive microwave sensor. [1] [2]

All warm bodies emit electro-magnetic radiation: see thermal radiation. Since different objects will emit differently at different frequencies, we can often determine what type of object we are looking at based on its emitted radiation—see spectroscopy. This principle underlies all passive microwave sensors and most passive infrared sensors.

This frequency and reliability comes at the cost of a poor resolution: the angular field of view of an antenna is directly proportional to the wavelength and inversely proportional to the effective aperture area. Thus we need a large deflector dish to compensate for a low frequency .[1]

If we form a vector space from each of the instrument channels in which all but one of the signatures of the different surface types are linearly independent, then it is straightforward to solve for the relative concentrations:
where is the radiometric signature at the instrument head (normally measured as a brightness temperature), is the signature of the nominal background surface type (normally water), is the signature of the ith surface type while Ci are the relative concentrations. [3] [4] [5]
