ELEVATION-BASED SEA-LEVEL RISE VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT OF MINDANAO, PHILIPPINES: ARE FREELY-AVAILABLE 30-M DEMS GOOD ENOUGH? [PDF]
We assessed the vertical accuracies and uncertainties of three freely-available global DEMs as inputs to elevation-based sea-level rise vulnerability assessment of Mindanao, Philippines – an area where above average SLR of 14.7 mm/year was ...

Comparison of different DEMs for hydrological studies in the mountainous areas
The optical and radar satellite data based Global Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) serve as a main data source in hydrological studies today. Open access Remote Sensing (RS) products have increasing accuracy and improved spatial resolution.

Towards ice-thickness inversion: an evaluation of global digital elevation models (DEMs) in the glacierized Tibetan Plateau [PDF]
Accurate estimates of regional ice thickness, which are generally produced by ice-thickness inversion models, are crucial for assessments of available freshwater resources and sea level rise.

Enhancing the GDEMs of Egypt Using a Surface Subtraction Approach [PDF]
This paper proposes an enhancement approach to improve the accuracy of global Digital Elevation Models (GDEMs) in Egypt. The proposed approach is an empirical one that depends on subtracting the heights error from the original DEM.
