Cryosat-2: Impact of Mission Resuscitation on Data System

SpaceOps 2010 Conference, 2010
In October 2005, a launcher failure ended the CryoSat mission before that a single bit could be processed by the Ground Segment. Since the future of the mission was not known a formal close-down of the activities, including the documentation and all systems was performed, ensuring consolidation of pending issues and configuration control of all the ...

Improved retrieval of sea ice thickness from SMOS and CryoSat-2

2015 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2015
We investigate the potential of a synergetic combination of data from ESA's SMOS and CryoSat-2 mission for sea ice thickness retrieval. SMOS and CryoSat-2 provide complementary information because of their different spatio-temporal sampling and resolution, and because of the complementary uncertainty due to the fundamental difference of the radiometric

Validation of the extended CryoSat-2 ocean data products

2017
Operational marine products from CryoSat-2, generated by a dedicated processor, have been available since April 2014. Here we present some results of a verification and scientific validation of the Geophysical Ocean Products (GOP), which have consolidated orbits and are available 30 days after acquisition.

CryoSat-2 Long-term Ocean Data Analysis and validation

2019
The ESA’s Earth Explorer CryoSat-2 mission is dedicated to precise measurement of the changes in the thickness of marine ice floating on the polar oceans and variations in the thickness of the vast ice sheets that overlie Greenland and Antarctica. With the effects of a fast-changing climate becoming apparent, particularly in the Polar Regions, it is ...
