Potential of Ka‐Band Range Rate Post‐Fit Residuals for High‐Frequency Mass Change Applications
Abstract We present the first extensive analysis of K/Ka‐band ranging post‐fit residuals of an official Level‐2 product, characterized as Line‐of‐Sight Gravity Differences (LGD), which exhibit and showcase interesting sub‐monthly geophysical signals.

Modulation of the Ocean Surface Skin Temperature and Heat Flux in the Presence of Strong SST Fronts
Abstract Previous studies of air‐sea interactions over sharp oceanic fronts have suggested that it is the ocean that drives the atmosphere across sub‐mesoscale ocean fronts, but it is the atmosphere that drives the ocean at synoptic scales; the responsible mechanism, however, is still a matter of debate.

Adaptive Saturated Neural Network Tracking Control of Spacecraft: Theory and Experimentation
An adaptive saturated neural network (NN) controller is developed for 6 degree-of-freedom (6DOF) spacecraft tracking, and its hardware-in-the-loop experimental validation is tested on the ground-based test facility. To overcome the dynamics uncertainties

The Effect of Water Vapor and Solar Zenith Angle on Oceanic Diurnal Warming
Abstract Oceanic diurnal warm layers have been extensively studied over the years due to their important role in a variety of geophysical disciplines. Much of this research has been dedicated to the development of predictive models of varying complexity to calculate the spatiotemporal magnitude of the effect. This manuscript presents results which show

Magnetospheric Cold Plasma Diagnostics Using High Altitude GNSS Signals
Abstract The plasmasphere is a key component of Earth's magnetosphere, regulating numerous energy transfer processes. The plasmasphere is also a cold multi‐species plasma. Tracing differences in dynamics between low and high mass cold ions is important for identifying the processes that drive plasmaspheric evolution.
