Satellite laser ranging at ultra-high PRF of hundreds of kilohertz all day
Frontiers in Physics, 2022 Satellite laser ranging (SLR) had been operated at a pulse repetition frequency (PRF) from ∼10 Hz to 10 kHz; the ultra-high PRF of SLR (UH-SLR) is a trend of development.

The fast debris evolution model [PDF]
, 2008 The ‘Particles-in-a-box’ (PIB) model introduced by Talent (1992) removed the need for computer-intensive Monte Carlo simulation to predict the gross characteristics of an evolving debris environment.

Genetic Algorithm for Space Debris and Space Objects Attitude Motion Reconstruction Through Optical Measurements [PDF]
, 2023 Space debris has recently become a major problem in the planning and execution of space missions. Due to the recent widespread placement of satellite mega- constellations in Low Earth Orbits (LEO), where most of the catalogued debris is located, the need

Debris cover and surface melt at a temperate maritime alpine glacier: Franz Josef Glacier, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2012 Melt rates on glaciers are strongly influenced by the presence of supraglacial debris, which can either enhance or reduce ablation relative to bare ice.

Human Population Density is a Poor Predictor of Debris in the Environment
Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2021 There have been a variety of attempts to model and quantify the amount of land-based waste entering the world’s oceans, most of which rely heavily on global estimates of population density as the key driving factor.

A distributed energy-balance melt model of an alpine debris-covered glacier [PDF]
, 2014 Distributed energy-balance melt models have rarely been applied to glaciers with extensive supraglacial debris cover. This paper describes the development of a distributed melt model and its application to the debris-covered Miage glacier, western ...

Satellite Orbit Prediction Using Big Data and Soft Computing Techniques to Avoid Space Collisions
Mathematics, 2021 The number of satellites and debris in space is dangerously increasing through the years. For that reason, it is mandatory to design techniques to approach the position of a given object at a given time.

A comparison of glacier melt on debris-covered glaciers in the northern and southern Caucasus [PDF]
, 2011 The glacier coverage in the Caucasus Mountains underwent considerable changes during the last decades. In some regions, the observed reduction in glacier area is comparable to those in the European Alps and the extent of supra-glacial debris increased on
