CryoSat Long-Term Ocean Data Analysis and Validation: Final Words on GOP Baseline-C

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
ESA’s Earth explorer mission CryoSat-2 has an ice-monitoring objective, but it has proven to also be a valuable source of observations for measuring impacts of climate change over oceans.

Reconstructing Large- and Mesoscale Dynamics in the Black Sea Region from Satellite Imagery and Altimetry Data—A Comparison of Two Methods

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Two remote sensing methods, satellite altimetry and 4D-Var assimilation of satellite imagery, are used to compute surface velocity fields in the Black Sea region.

Using Sea Level to Determine the Strength, Structure and Variability of the Cape Horn Current

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The Cape Horn Current (CHC) is one of the components of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current system that enables it to fulfill its crucial role as a conduit between ocean basins.

Estimation of River Discharge Solely from Remote-Sensing Derived Data: An Initial Study Over the Yangtze River

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
A novel approach has been developed to estimating river discharge solely using satellite-derived parameters. The temporal river width observations from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS), made at two stream segments a distance apart ...

Canopy and Terrain Height Retrievals with ICESat-2: A First Look

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
NASA’s Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) launched in fall 2018 and has since collected continuous elevation data over the Earth’s surface. The primary scientific objective is to measure the cryosphere for studies related to

Mass Balance of Novaya Zemlya Archipelago, Russian High Arctic, Using Time-Variable Gravity from GRACE and Altimetry Data from ICESat and CryoSat-2

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
We examine the mass balance of the glaciers in the Novaya Zemlya Archipelago, located in the Russian High Arctic using time series of time-variable gravity from the NASA/DLR Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission, laser altimetry data ...

Parameter estimation for peaky altimetric waveforms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Much attention has been recently devoted to the analysis of coastal altimetric waveforms. When approaching the coast, altimetric waveforms are sometimes corrupted by peaks caused by high reflective areas inside the illuminated land surfaces or by the ...

The Eddy Experiment: accurate GNSS-R ocean altimetry from low altitude aircraft

open access: yes, 2004
During the Eddy Experiment, two synchronous GPS receivers were flown at 1 km altitude to collect L1 signals and their reflections from the sea surface for assessment of altimetric precision and accuracy.

Rapid submarine ice melting in the grounding zones of ice shelves in West Antarctica. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Enhanced submarine ice-shelf melting strongly controls ice loss in the Amundsen Sea embayment (ASE) of West Antarctica, but its magnitude is not well known in the critical grounding zones of the ASE's major glaciers.

A pilot variational coupled reanalysis based on the CESAM climate model

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Variational data assimilation of in‐situ and satellite ocean data and reanalysis atmospheric data into an intermediate complexity Earth system model is possible by adjusting the surface fluxes and internal model parameters. This pilot application requires nearly complete information on the atmospheric state for synchronization.
