Lake Ice Data Access and Tools
Lake ice data from NASA range from synthetic aperture radar datasets to infrared imaging. Our datasets and tools help users find and integrate the data they need to measure when lake ice form and melts, its connection to human activities, and what it may highlight about climate change.
