Challenges and Best Practices: Sea Ice Thickness Distribution as a Rosetta Stone for Cross-Scale Communication
This webinar addressed issues related to estimating sea ice thickness across many scales and included discussion on the consistency of sea ice thickness distributions across different horizontal length scales, specifically the issue of measurement accuracy and some of the challenges related to estimating sea ice thickness across many length scales. The presentation offered insight into the general phenomenon of "up-scaling" by considering scaling relationships as a form of communication, specifically the communication of information between scales; and illustrated some new best practices illustrated a simple heuristic model and some small case studies.
