Abstract Poyang Lake, China's largest floodplain lake, plays a crucial role in regional hydrology by seasonally regulating water to mitigate floods and sustain extensive wetland ecosystems. However, complex hydrodynamics and significant spatial hydraulic gradients often invalidate the traditional “flat‐water” assumption, making reliable estimation of ...

Abstract Understanding the coastal zone of the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS), where it interacts with the Southern Ocean and warmer air masses, is crucial for predicting Antarctica's influence on the global climate and sea level. This region has multiple tipping mechanisms that could trigger large, rapid, and potentially irreversible changes in the AIS ...

Sea State Bias of ICESat in the Subarctic Seas
The fine spatial resolution of laser altimeters makes them potentially valuable to oceanography studying features at mesoscale, close to land, and in the marginal ice zone. To fulfill this promise, we must understand laser sea state bias (SSB). SSB occurs in the measurement of sea surface height in the presence of waves when the altimeter observations ...

Consolidating ICESat-2 Ocean Wave Characteristics with CryoSat-2 during the CRYO2ICE Campaign
Using the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite 2 (ICESat-2) global high-resolution elevation measurements, it is possible to distinguish individual surface ocean waves. With the vast majority of ocean surveying missions using radar satellites, ICESat-

Satellite‐Derived Volume Budget of Antarctic Sea Ice
Abstract In recent years, the Antarctic has seen a notable shift in sea ice trends: Where sea ice extent and volume were increasing on average, they have shown an unprecedented decline since 2016. Understanding the drivers of this shift is crucial to determining the impacts of climate change on sea ice and improving modeling of Antarctic sea ice ...

Assessing SWOT's Measurement Capabilities in the Complex Paraná River
Abstract Estimating water surface elevation (WSE) is crucial for understanding hydrological processes; however, many rivers remain insufficiently monitored due to the limitations of in situ gauge networks. The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, equipped with Synthetic Aperture Radar technology, enables global monitoring of WSE with high
