Quantifying Surface‐Height Change Over a Periglacial Environment With ICESat‐2 Laser Altimetry [PDF]
Earth and Space Science, 2021 We use Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite 2 (ICESat‐2) laser altimetry crossovers and repeat tracks collected over the North Slope of Alaska to estimate ground surface‐height change due to the seasonal freezing and thawing of the active layer.

Synthesis of the ICESat/ICESat-2 and CryoSat-2 observations to reconstruct time series of lake level
International Journal of Digital Earth, 2023 Synthesis of multi-satellite altimetry facilitates the acquisition of long-term changes in lake level but may induce biases due to inconsistent data sources, and thus remains largely unexplored.
