The
code provided here relates to methods described in the following paper:
Tuckett, P. A., Ely, J. C., Sole, A. J., Lea, J.
M., Livingstone, S. J., Jones, J. M., and van Wessem, J. M.: Automated mapping
of the seasonal evolution of surface meltwater and its links to climate on the
Amery Ice Shelf, Antarctica, The Cryosphere Discuss. [preprint], https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-2021-177, in review, 2021.
The
scripts provided can be used to automatically map surface meltwater in
Antarctica from Landsat optical satellite images. The main lake mapping script
is run in Google Earth Engine (GEE), and requires three inputs: 1) A start and
end date for the mapping period; 2) A shapefile to specify the total area over
which lakes will be mapped; 3) The temporal resolution at which results will be
generated...
