The structure and nature of Norske Ø Ice Barrier, the southern boundary of the Northeast Water summer polynya, is deduced from Landsat 5 TM images. Within the barrier, three main areas are identified: glaciers to the west, a permanent central ice region made up of fast ice and a variable zone of attached pack ice.
