Abstract :
1. Morphological structure and state (i.e. temperature, salinity) of drifting sea ice are discussed. 2. The results of laboratory and natural investigations of UHF electromagnetic characteristics ( and tg ) of drifting sea ice are given. The estimate of electromagnetic contrast on ice-sea water boundary is given. 3. The results of experiments on radio echo sounding of drifting sea ice from aircraft are presented.
