Delete---ICESat-2 leaf area index (LAI) Retrieval Comparisons

, 2021
This is the first release of the LAI used for the submitted paper: Guo et al., 2021: Exploring photon-counting laser altimeter ICESat-2 in retrieving LAI and correcting clumping effect. The grid LAI derived from airborne LiDAR data was used to validate the LAI derived from ICESat-2, which has been validated by the field measurements and has the spatial

Assessment of SWOT for Monitoring Ice‐Marginal Lake Water Levels in Greenland

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission provides a powerful data set for monitoring global surface water resources. However, its performance for monitoring ice‐marginal lakes in Greenland remains unknown. Due to the scarcity of in situ measurements, this study evaluated the reliability of ice‐marginal lake elevations ...

Quantifying river morphological changes using multi‐satellite observations and in situ measurements

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study integrates optical, radar and altimetry satellite data with river gauge measurements to estimate periodically submerged riverbed topography and quantify morphological change. By linking how often water covers the riverbed with water‐level variations, erosion and deposition patterns are mapped across a reach of Jamuna River.

Sensitivity of Flood Extent and Population Exposure to Variations in Bathymetry Across a Shallow Continental Shelf Lagoon

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Bathymetry is a critical input to storm surge models on coastlines fronted by lagoon systems, yet few studies explore how variations in bathymetry influence flood impacts, flooded extent, and exposed population across these globally widespread morphologies.

Evaluating and comparing the performance of ICESat-2 and GEDI data for estimating aboveground biomass in mangroves

International Journal of Digital Earth
The launch of the ICESat-2 and GEDI spaceborne LiDAR missions has provided new opportunities for large-scale estimation of mangrove aboveground biomass density (AGBD); however, their footprint-scale performance remains unclear.

Impacts of Temperature‐ and Stress‐Dependent Rheology on Ice‐Shelf‐Front Bending

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Classical treatments of ice‐shelf bending suggest that shelf fronts should bend downwards, due to the distribution of hydrostatic water pressure at the front. However, LiDAR data show several instances of upward‐bending ice‐shelf fronts. While this phenomenon has often been attributed to a buoyant force from a submerged ice bench, recent work ...

Radiative Transfer Through Clouds and Its Applications in Support of the Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) Mission [PDF]

, 2012
The Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets, which contain enough ice to raise sea level by about 7 and 60 m, respectively, are losing mass at an increasing rate.

Monitoring Flood Inundation Dynamics From Space

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract With the increasing intensity and frequency of flood events worldwide, the need for accurate and timely inundation mapping has never been more critical. Large‐scale flood extent estimations are vital for coordinating effective disaster response, facilitating recovery, and building future resilience.
