An Adaptive Filter Based on Local Slope by Adjusting Elliptic Filter Kernel for ICESat-2 Photon Counting Laser Altimetric Data [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2020
The Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) was launched on September 15th, 2018, which continues to perform measurement tasks as the successor to ICESat. Unlike full waveform technology of ICESat, ICESat-2 employs micropulse photon counting

Accelerating High Mountain Asia Glacier Loss From ICESat and ICESat-2 [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing
Communities dependent on snow and ice melt need to face escalating challenges due to glacier depletion, particularly in High Mountain Asia (HMA). Understanding glacier changes is thus crucial for addressing these impacts. Employing Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) and ICESat-2, we estimate glacier mass balance from 2003 to 2023 using ...

Estimating Terrain Slope from ICESat-2 Data in Forest Environments

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
The global digital elevation measurement (DEM) products such as SRTM DEM and GDEM have been widely used for terrain slope retrieval in forests. However, the slope estimation accuracy is generally limited due to the DEMs’ low vertical accuracy over ...

Monitoring Coastal Waves with ICESat-2

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
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.

ICESat laser altimetry over small mountain glaciers [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2016
Using sparsely glaciated southern Norway as a case study, we assess the potential and limitations of ICESat laser altimetry for analysing regional glacier elevation change in rough mountain terrain.

ICESAT-2 ALTIMETRY AS GEODETIC CONTROL [PDF]

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

GEDI: A New LiDAR Altimetry to Obtain the Water Levels of More Lakes on the Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2023
Remote sensing is an effective means for lake water level monitoring on the Tibetan Plateau (TP). The purpose of this study is to estimate water levels of lakes on the TP using the Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation (GEDI) and Cloud and Land ...

A Path to Better Science Through Co‐Creation and Open Infrastructure

open access: yesPerspectives of Earth and Space Scientists, Volume 7, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Proprietary development solutions are often perceived as being delivered more quickly and easily than open methods, fueling the misconception that they inherently produce better overall outcomes. However, we argue that open development practices can lead to both efficient and maximally impactful outcomes.
