Measuring Ganymede’s Librations with Laser Altimetry [PDF]
Jupiter’s moon Ganymede might be in possession of a subsurface ocean located between two ice layers. However, from Galileo data it is not possible to unambiguously infer the thickness and densities of the individual layers.

Signal Photon Extraction Method for ICESat-2 Data Using Slope and Elevation Information Provided by Stereo Images [PDF]
Laser altimetry data from the Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) contain a lot of noise, which necessitates the requirement for a signal photon extraction method.

ICESat laser altimetry over small mountain glaciers [PDF]
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.

OVERVIEW OF THE TERRESTRIAL ECOSYSTEM CARBON MONITORING SATELLITE LASER ALTIMETER [PDF]
The Terrestrial Ecosystem Carbon Monitoring satellite will be the first satellite of China with multi-beams laser altimeter and repetition frequency equal to GLAS on the world first laser altimetry satellite ICESat, but smaller diameter than GLAS.

ICESAT-2 LASER ALTIMETRY DATA-GUIDED HIGH-ACCURACY POSITIONING OF SATELLITE STEREO IMAGES [PDF]
Positioning accuracy is a key indicator that restricts the accuracy of satellite image mapping. Laser altimetry acquires surface height in decimeters or higher accuracy, providing high-accuracy topographic information for satellite photogrammetry.

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