INFRARED AIR PHOTOGRAPHY FOR STUDY OF THE ICE COVER

INFRAKRASSNAYA AEROS"YEMKA PRI IZUCHENII LEDYANOGO POKROVA

This method gives some examples of its first use by Russians on sea ice. More data can be obtained with this than with other air-photo methods, enabling determination of the thickness and age of ice, the charting of cracks covered with young ice and snow, and the estimating of the relative age of cracks and hummocks. The new method is promising for patrol and research work.
