Estimation of long-term snow and sea ice cover variability using satellite data
Based on a long-term satellite data set, this work addresses variability of snow cover and sea ice in the Northern Hemisphere. Investigation was conducted for the case of four Western Siberian regions and thirteen arctic seas. Five different methods were used for trend analysis of the multi-year time series. Snow cover and sea ice thickness are decreased in the examined regions during that period. Regions with maximal decrease of snow and sea ice cover were detected. The employed methods were compared with each other.
