Abstract
Preliminary observations from ERS-1 SAR imagery of a lead system are presented. Radar cross section values extracted from the ERS-1 data show changes due to lead evolution from open water to new ice. Work is ongoing to compare these results to in situ measurements and other satellite-based imagery.
