An Assessment of Regional ICESat‐2 Sea‐Level Trends [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Sea-level rise is an important indicator of ongoing climate change and well observed by satellite altimetry. However, observations from conventional altimetry degrade at the coast where regional sea-level changes can deviate from the open-ocean and ...

Small Reservoirs Offer a New Perspective on Flood Reduction in Large Basins

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The flood reduction potential of individual reservoirs within a large river network continuum remains poorly understood due to the complex interplay between reservoir characteristics and network properties. Here we investigate whether a collection of relatively small reservoirs can play a significant role in mediating downstream floods and ...

Deriving Snow Depth From ICESat-2 Lidar Multiple Scattering Measurements: Uncertainty Analyses

open access: yesFrontiers in Remote Sensing, 2022
The application of diffusion theory and Monte Carlo lidar radiative transfer simulations presented in Part I of this series of study suggests that snow depth can be derived from the first-, second- and third-order moments of the lidar backscattering ...

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) for Monitoring Seasonal Snow

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
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 ...

A Scalable, Cloud‐Based Workflow for Spectrally‐Attributed ICESat‐2 Bathymetry With Application to Benthic Habitat Mapping Using Deep Learning

open access: yesEarth and Space Science
Since the 2018 launch of NASA's ICESat‐2 satellite, numerous studies have documented the bathymetric measurement capabilities of the space‐based laser altimeter.

Potentialities and Limits of ICESAT-2 Observation for Atmospheric Aerosol Investigation

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2016
ICESat-2(Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2), slated for launch in 2017, will continue the important observations of ice-sheet elevation change, sea-ice freeboard, and vegetation canopy height begun by ICESat in 2003.

Polygon‐Based Spectral Reflectance Sampling for Real‐Time River Discharge Estimation

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
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 ...

Significant Decline in Carbon Storage at the Edges of Mangrove Forest

open access: yesEarth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Quantitative analysis of blue carbon stored in mangrove ecosystems is essential for understanding their role in climate change mitigation. However, the impacts of edge effects in fragmented mangrove forests are often overlooked in large‐scale blue carbon assessments.
