Florence Fetterer

Florence Fetterer manages NSIDC’s NOAA-sponsored program and serves as the NSIDC liaison to NOAA. The NOAA@NSIDC program includes some of NSIDC’s most popular data sets, such as the Glacier Photograph Collection and the Sea Ice Index. The team specializes in documenting and publishing data sets that might otherwise remain unavailable to researchers. Examples include Russian and U.S. sea ice chart data, submarine upward looking sonar ice draft data, and historical Soviet snow data. In partnership with the U.S. National Ice Center, NOAA@NSIDC is archiving and documenting a selection of operational products. These data, like the Marginal Ice Zone product, offer researchers high-resolution and highly accurate analyses of sea ice on a daily or weekly basis.
