- A monthly Arctic sea ice thickness product from 1995 to 2025 using multiple radar altimetry data (2026) · Geo-spatial Information Science · doi
Long-term variations in Arctic sea ice thickness have received less attention due to the difficulty in measuring sea ice thickness directly by satellite-based instruments. Existing Arctic sea ice thickness products have limitations in terms of accuracy and resolution.

Hostile ice conditions in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago make it difficult to collect oceanographic data. The need to accurately calibrate the CTD and other instruments to ensure reliable data. The challenge of interpreting the data in the context of large-scale atmospheric circulation patterns.
