Performance of ICESat‐2 Precision Pointing Determination [PDF]
Global elevations are critical to understanding the Earth's dynamic processes and changing climate. These measurements are best acquired from a space‐based vantage point and are most accurate using laser altimetry technology.

Monitoring Coastal Waves with ICESat-2
The coastal zone faces an ever-growing risk associated with climate-driven change, including sea level rise and increased frequency of extreme natural hazards. Often the location and dynamism of coastal regions makes them a formidable environment to adequately study with in-situ methods.

Synthesis of the ICESat/ICESat-2 and CryoSat-2 observations to reconstruct time series of lake level
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.

When carrying out SDB (satellite-derived bathymetry) in island area based on ICESat-2 (Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite 2) data, it is often found that the ICESat-2 bathymetric signals are partially missing due to the influence of thick aerosols ...

ICESAT-2 ALTIMETRY AS GEODETIC CONTROL [PDF]
Abstract. Digital elevation models (DEMs) are of fundamental importance for a large variety of scientific and commercial applications. Many geoscience studies require the most precise and current information about the Earth’s topography. Independent quality assessments of these DEMs are crucial to their appropriate use in land process studies, as ...

ICESat-2 Applications for Investigating Emerging Volcanoes [PDF]
Submarine volcanism in shallow waters (<100 m), particularly in remote settings, is difficult to monitor quantitatively and, in the rare formation of islands, it is challenging to understand the rapid-paced erosion. However, these newly erupted volcanic islands become observable to airborne and/or satellite remote sensing instruments.

Uncertainties on the combined use of ICESat and ICESat-2 observations to monitor lake levels
Lake water level is an important variable to indicate lake hydrological balances and climate change impacts. Benefiting from the launch of the laser altimeters ICESat and ICESat-2, higher spatial-resolution elevation measurements have opened new ...

ICESat-2 for Fluvial Geomorphology
ICESat-2, a space-borne altimeter launched by NASA in 2018, has the ability to resolve the ground at sub-meter resolution. Using novel filtering techniques and data I/O, we are able to visualize bare-ground transects of heavily vegetated terrain. This presentation was given during the 2022 ESIP January meeting held virtually in January 2022.
