Abstract.
In this paper, available data on propagation of radio waves in the Arctic
region are analyzed and scattering of radio waves by the sea surface and ice is
studied in the light of requirements for radar monitoring of ice.
Key words: propagation of radio
waves, Arctic region, radars, monitoring of ice and icebergs.
