Abstract Longwave cloud radiative effects significantly influence variability in global and regional Earth systems. However, there have been very few, if any, measurements of the far‐infrared (FIR) radiation over the polar regions, where about half of the outgoing longwave radiation is in the FIR spectrum. This motivated the Polar Radiant Energy in the

Proton‐Radiation‐Tolerant Silicon Photonic Charge Sensor for Spacecraft Applications
A photonic charge sensor based on silicon photonic crystal waveguides is evaluated under proton irradiation to clarify radiation‐induced optical absorption during operation. The study quantitatively determines absorption increase at 20 keV and demonstrates retained spacecraft‐potential sensing after high‐fluence exposure, providing a quantitative basis

Power Budgets for CubeSat Radios to Support Ground Communications and Inter-Satellite Links
CubeSats are a class of pico-satellites that have emerged over the past decade as a cost-effective alternative to the traditional large satellites to provide space experimentation capabilities to universities and other types of small enterprises, which ...

Model‐Based Systems Engineering in Space Applications: A Comprehensive Literature Review
ABSTRACT The growing complexity of space engineering is driving the demand to embrace the adoption of Model‐Based Systems Engineering (MBSE). Although the MBSE is well‐practiced in the space industry, the level of effort and need required to obtain the benefits of MBSE vastly differ across enterprises; this disparity presents a significant challenge to

The Daily Atmospheric Ionospheric Limb Imager (DAILI) CubeSat Experiment
Abstract The Daily Atmospheric Ionospheric Limb Imager (DAILI) (Daily Atmospheric and Ionospheric Limb Imager) mission utilized a 6U CubeSat, deployed at about 410 km altitude in a 51‐degree orbit, to make simultaneous daytime limb measurements in two colors; at 630 nm to measure the OI (630 nm) redline and at 765 nm to measure the O2 ${\mathrm{O}}_{2}$

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) for Monitoring Seasonal Snow
Abstract Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) offers a potential pathway for measuring seasonal snow water equivalent (SWE) and snow depth at spatial and temporal scales needed for basin‐scale hydrology. First proposed for seasonal snow more than 25 years ago, InSAR uses repeat‐pass radar phase differences to estimate changes in SWE or ...

Polygon‐Based Spectral Reflectance Sampling for Real‐Time River Discharge Estimation
Abstract River discharge estimation (RDE) methods are traditionally prone to high costs, vulnerability to extreme events, and are constrained by real‐time data availability. Current remote sensing‐based RDE approaches mainly extract basic river features such as width and water surface elevation, but rarely exploit the full spectral information from ...
