The Land, Atmosphere Near real-time Capability for EOS (LANCE) makes data from AMSR2 instruments available within three hours of satellite overpass. We obtain the completed near real time (NRT) AMSR2 Daily L3 12.5 km Sea Ice Concentration Polar Grids from the LANCE website at GHRC and provide images for the ROSETTA-Ice region of interest as *.png files.
Float locations: ‘+’ signs mark possible Alamo float deployments. These have been updated starting 13-Nov-2016.
