| Zusammenfassung |
| This study combines fieldwork and remote sensing image analysis to quantify changes in
multiyear landfast sea ice (MLSI) for the last 60 years in Yelverton Bay and Yelverton Inlet,
on the northwestern coast of Ellesmere Island. Yelverton Bay features a range of ice types,
including first and second year sea ice, rolling-surface multiyear sea ice, and calved glacier
ice; this study presents the first dedicated, in situ assessment and sampling of these. Sea ice
thicknesses were determined using a 500 MHz GPR system towed behind a snowmobile.
