Figure 9.5
Deformation grid of sea ice cover from 11 to 14 December 2001, obtained from a pair of SAR images
(on 11 December and 14 December), with total strain rate vector (gray arrows), both overlain on the SAR image
of 14 December. A scale of the deformation rate is shown at the lower left corner [
