ICESat-2 Simulated Data from Airborne Altimetery [PDF]

, 2010
Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) is scheduled to launch in 2015 and will carry onboard the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS), which represents a new approach to spaceborne determination of surface elevations ...

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 ...

Impact of Slopes on ICESat-2 Elevation Accuracy Along the CHINARE Route in East Antarctica

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
As the follow-on study to the assessment of ICESat-2 ice surface elevations, we assessed how they are influenced by the surface slopes, which are derived from the ICESat-2 elevations of the received photons and available in the land-ice surface heights ...

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.

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

EPJ 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.

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

Frontiers 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 ...

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.

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 ...
