|
 | An outlook of sea ice conditions expected in the Ross Sea and McMurdo Sound regions of Antarctica is presented for the period mid-December 1969 through mid-February 1970. Oceanographic and climatic data for these areas were analyzed in terms of sea ice growth during the past austral winter. These analyses, combined with ice conditions observed by aerial reconnaissance on 2 and 18 November and by satellite for the period 11 through ... |

| Although the primary source of U.S. Naval Oceanographic Office ice information is aircraft reconnaissance, satellites are becoming increasingly important. The advantages and disadvantages of utilizing aircraft and satellites to observe ice are compared to determine the relative value of the information. Satellites serve as a valuable supplement to aircraft reconnaissance by indicating boundaries, large water openings, and general concentrations. In addition, satellites are capable of providing extensive areal coverage, including ... |
