  abstract = {{T}he dispersion of flexural waves propagating in the {A}rctic sea ice cover is exploited in order to locally measure the ice thickness. {T}he observed dispersion, for waves filtered in the 4-20 s period interval, at up to 4 broad-band seismometers deployed in {S}pring 2007 near the {N}orth {P}ole, is compared to a parameterized model that accounts for a complex wavefield made of a superposition of independent plane waves with different amplitudes and back-azimuth angles. {T}he parameterization, that includes finding the best modeled ice thickness, is performed by using the cross-correlation functions between the seismometers. {T}he ice thickness is estimated to 2.5+/-0.2 m for the similar to 1 km-large floe the seismic stations were deployed on, which is coherent with other, independent measurements at this site. {T}his study thus demonstrates the feasibility of using broad-band seismometers deployed on the sea-ice in order to passively measure the ice thickness, without requiring active sources nor human intervention.},
