Coasts

Where land meets water: beaches, barrier islands, estuaries and the strait between continents.

  1. Sentinel-1

    Ilulissat Icefjord and Disko Bay, Greenland, August 2024 to October 2025

    Thirty-eight Sentinel-1 passes at a twelve-day interval record the icefjord's discharge, the freeze and break-up of Disko Bay, and the seasonal advance and retreat of sea ice over fifteen months.

  2. Sentinel-1

    Diomede Islands, Bering Strait, November 2024 and March 2025

    Two radar acquisitions of the same 48 by 27 km window, 108 days apart, record the strait's transition from open water in November to fractured pack ice in March.
