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

open access: yesInternational 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.

Water Level Change of Qinghai Lake from ICESat and ICESat-2 Laser Altimetry

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Long-term satellite observations of the water levels of lakes are crucial to our understanding of lake hydrological basin systems. The Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation satellite (ICESat) and ICESat-2 were employed to monitor the water level of Qinghai Lake

Uncertainties on the combined use of ICESat and ICESat-2 observations to monitor lake levels

open access: yesFrontiers in Water, 2023
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 ...

Performance Assessment of ICESat-2 Laser Altimeter Data for Water-Level Measurement over Lakes and Reservoirs in China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Although the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS) onboard the Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) was primarily designed for glacier and sea-ice measurement, it can also be applied to monitor lake surface height (LSH ...

Deriving Antarctic Sea‐Ice Thickness From Satellite Altimetry and Estimating Consistency for NASA's ICESat/ICESat‐2 Missions

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
With the launch of the Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite‐2 (ICESat‐2), densely measuring the Antarctic ocean all year long, monthly sea ice thickness changes can be inspected.

Can ICESat-2 estimate stand-level plant structural traits? Validation of an ICESat-2 simulator

open access: yesScience of Remote Sensing, 2023
Global measurement of plant structural traits like canopy height, canopy cover and Plant Area Volume Density (PAVD) profiles form a key input for many emerging fields in ecology and meteorology.

ICESAT-2 ALTIMETRY AS GEODETIC CONTROL [PDF]

open access: yesThe International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2020
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.

What have we learnt from ICESat on greenland ice sheet change and what to expect from current ICESat-2 [PDF]

open access: yesGeodetski Vestnik, 2021
Ice-sheet mass balance and ice behaviour have been effectively monitored remotely by space-borne laser ranging technology, i.e. satellite laser altimetry, and/or satellite gravimetry.

Increased Ice Thinning over Svalbard Measured by ICESat/ICESat-2 Laser Altimetry [PDF]

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
A decade-long pronounced increase in temperatures in the Arctic, especially in the Barents Sea region, resulted in a global warming hotspot over Svalbard. Associated changes in the cryosphere are the consequence and lead to a demand for monitoring of the glacier changes.
