Retrieving Precipitable Water Vapor From Shipborne Multi‐GNSS Observations [PDF]
©2019. American Geophysical UnionPrecipitable water vapor (PWV) is an important parameter for climate research and a crucial factor to achieve high accuracy in satellite geodesy and satellite altimetry. Currently Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)

Satellite mapping of the Antarctic gravity field
The production and analysis of the Antarctic digital magnetic anomaly map will be greatly aided by complementary gravity data. They help to constrain thickness variations of the crust and related magnetic effects that may be used for correcting long ...

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

Liquid filled canyons on Titan [PDF]
In May 2013 the Cassini RADAR altimeter observed channels in Vid Flumina, a drainage network connected to Titan’s second largest hydrocarbon sea, Ligeia Mare. Analysis of these altimeter echoes shows that the channels are located in deep (up to ~570 m),

Parameter estimation for peaky altimetric waveforms [PDF]
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 ...

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