ICESat-2 for Fluvial Geomorphology
, 2022 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.

Estimating Terrain Slope from ICESat-2 Data in Forest Environments
Remote 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 ...

Rapid submarine ice melting in the grounding zones of ice shelves in West Antarctica. [PDF]
, 2016 Enhanced submarine ice-shelf melting strongly controls ice loss in the Amundsen Sea embayment (ASE) of West Antarctica, but its magnitude is not well known in the critical grounding zones of the ASE's major glaciers.

Joint inversion estimate of regional glacial isostatic adjustment in Antarctica considering a lateral varying Earth structure (ESA STSE Project REGINA) [PDF]
, 2017 A major uncertainty in determining the mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet from measurements of satellite gravimetry, and to a lesser extent satellite altimetry, is the poorly known correction for the ongoing deformation of the solid Earth caused by

Taking stock of arctic sea ice and climate [PDF]
, 2009 The relationship among the cause-and-effect of the Arctic atmosphere, sea ice, and ocean is discussed. The increased vulnerability of the Arctic system to anomalous atmospheric forcing can be argued from the perspective that recent ice loss is the result

Local Geoid height calculations with GNSS, airborne, and spaceborne Lidar data
Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, 2023 Determining the exact position of objects on the Earth’s surface is extremely important. The general purpose of this study is to calculate local geoid and orthometric heights of points obtained from ICESat-2/ATLAS, airborne LIDAR, and GNSS/CORS data and ...

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Tree canopy height is a key indicator of forest biomass and structure, yet accurate mapping across the Amazon remains challenging. Here, we generated a canopy height map of the Amazon forest at ~4.8 m resolution using Planet NICFI imagery and a deep learning U‐Net model trained with airborne LiDAR data.
