CAR LEADEX Arctic Sea Ice and Tundra Radiation Measurements L1 V1 (CAR_LEADEX_L1C) at GES DISC

Published by NASA/GSFC/SED/ESD/TISL/GESDISC | National Aeronautics and Space Administration | Catalog Last Checked: June 25, 2026 at 01:32 PM | Dataset Last Updated: June 23, 2026
CAR LEADEX mission measured bidirectional reflectance functions for four common arctic surfaces: snow covered sea ice, melt season sea ice, snow covered tundra, and tundra shortly after snowmelt. The measurements show how the reflectance differs amongst the mentioned arctic surfaces and provides insights into the variability of albedo in the arctic.
