ICESat‐2 Coastal and Nearshore Bathymetry Product Algorithm Development

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract NASA's ICESat‐2 (Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite‐2) satellite launched in 2018, carrying a single instrument, the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (ATLAS). The Level 1 science objectives of the mission focus primarily on the cryosphere, with specific interest in monitoring changes in polar ice sheets, glaciers and sea ice ...

Evaluating the performance of various models for deriving orthometricheights using Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data

open access: yesNova Geodesia
Orthometric heights are vital for fields such as topographic mapping, construction, engineering, and geophysical studies. This study examines the performance of five Global Geopotential Models (GGMs) and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data in

Global geoid adjustment on local area for GIS applications using GNSS permanent station coordinates

open access: yesGeodesy and Cartography, 2018
Orthometric heights, useful for many engineering and geoscience applications, can be obtained by GPS (Global Positioning System) surveys only when an accurate geoid undulation model (that supplies the vertical separation between the geoid and WGS84 ...

VIIRS Radiance Cluster Analysis in CrIS Observations for Enhanced Data Assimilation in NWP Models

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract The Cross‐track Infrared Sounder (CrIS) radiance data plays a crucial role in numerical weather prediction (NWP) models by providing essential atmospheric sounding information through data assimilation. However, challenges arise in handling subpixel cloud contamination within CrIS fields of view (FOVs), which can impact the accuracy of ...

Volcano‐Tectonic Crisis of Mayotte (2018–2022): A Deformation Model for Geodetic Applications

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 10, October 2025.
Abstract Volcano‐tectonic unrest during the 2018–2022 crisis of Mayotte (Comoros archipelago) generated an island‐wide surface displacement reaching ∼ ${\sim} $20 cm, with a relative (internal) deformation of the island of ∼ ${\sim} $10 cm. Correcting for these displacements, which exceed the required accuracy of geodetic network reference coordinates,

Implementation of CORS GNSS and local geoid for precise orthometric height determination in land subsidence region (a case study in Semarang City)

open access: yesJournal of Geospatial Information Science and Engineering, 2019
Geoid has an important role in converting geodetic heights to physical heights, both in orthometric height system and normal height systems. At present, Semarang City already has gravimetric geoid with centimeter-level precision.
