Great Lakes all-weather ice information system
Abstract
The all-weather ice information system described uses the X-band side-looking airborne radar to determine the aerial distribution, location, and type of ice cover in the Great Lakes and an airborne S-band short-pulse radar to determine the ice thickness. Results from the 1974-1975 winter season demonstrated the ability of the system to provide all-weather ice information to shippers at the required time.
