Sea Ice Measurements Data clearly demonstrate an ongoing rise in global temperature. NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies has reported that we have just experienced the warmest decade (2000 to 2009) on record. Measuring the environmental impact of this change – and deciding how to respond to it – is a major challenge facing scientists and policymakers today and will be for years to come.
Electronic devices are essential to efforts to measure impacts such as the reduction in polar ice. Polar ice regulates global climate because it reflects about 80% of the incoming sunlight. Radar altimetry data from satellites is being ...
