NASA | Operation IceBridge: Greenland, Spring 2010

Operation Ice Bridge is a NASA initiative aimed at bridging the data gap between the decommissioning of the Ice Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) and the launch of ICESat-2. The project involves using NASA aircraft equipped with scientific instruments to gather data on ice changes in Greenland and Antarctica. This data is crucial for understanding ice dynamics, climate impact, and future sea level rise. The initiative ensures continuous monitoring of polar ice, providing valuable insights into the mechanics of ice movement and its implications for global climate.
