Seasonal Ice Zone Observing Network (SIZONET) |
Rough ice, ice ridges, stationary landfast and drifting pack ice are among the features that can be detected by the Barrow coastal radar. The radar is mounted on a 4-story building in Downtown Barrow, Alaska and can detect sea ice at ranges of about 10km (6 miles). Images are archived every five minutes to monitor processes that shape the landfast ice. Click the link to view Barrow coastal radar images and animations.
