These data are very useful for examining the mesoscale phenomena. There are several characteristics such as coastal polynyas and sea ice eddies in the image. A coastal polynya was observed along the shelf break. Sea ice eddies were found at the ice edge which is located 60-200km off the Antarctic coast from December to February. These eddies are characterized by horizontal scale of 30-50km and small propagation of a few cm/s westward.}, title = {DISTRIBUTION OF SEA ICE OFF QUEEN MAUD LAND FROM NOAA SATELLITE AVHRR IMAGERY}, volume = {4}, year = {1991} }
