Analysis and Accuracy Assessment of a New Global Nearshore ICESat‐2 Bathymetric Data Product

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract Although designed primarily for cryospheric science objectives, NASA's ICESat‐2 satellite, which launched in 2018, quickly became recognized as the world's first spaceborne bathymetric lidar. Initially, there was no dedicated bathymetric data product for the mission, so researchers interested in using ICESat‐2 bathymetry developed their own ...

Global Assessment of Lake Surface Morphology and Its Impact on Water Volume Estimation

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Lake surface morphology, an essential yet underexplored feature of hydrological systems, remains poorly understood, including its effects on water volume estimation. This study investigates north‐south surface profiles of 147 lakes worldwide using ICESat‐2 altimetry data (2018–2024).

Detection of Landslide‐Generated Tsunami by Shipborne GNSS Precise Point Positioning

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.
Abstract Precise point positioning (PPP) of ships using Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) data reveals the precise movements of marine vessels. This method may quantify anomalies in sea surface height with implications for oceanographic monitoring, exploration, and tsunami warning. The GNSS PPP data from the R/V Sikuliaq, a research ship of the

Measuring the Water Level Datum Relative to the Ellipsoid During Hydrographic Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Hydrographic surveys are referenced vertically to a local water level “chart” datum. Conducting a survey relative to the ellipsoid dictates a datum transformation take place before the survey is used for current navigational products.

Monitoring Water From Space: An Illustration in Death Valley, California

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 5, 16 March 2025.
Abstract Climate change and human activity are dramatically reshaping how water is distributed on Earth. High quality observations and products that bridge the gap between low‐level data and actionable information are needed to support the understanding of current and future water availability. Two new developments are addressing these needs.

Comments on hydrographic and topographic LIDAR acquisition and merging with multibeam sounding data acquired in the Olympic Coast National Marine Sanctuary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In April 2005, a SHOALS 1000T LIDAR system was used as an efficient alternative for safely acquiring data to describe the existing conditions of nearshore bathymetry and the intertidal zone over an approximately 40.7 km2 (11.8 nm2) portion of hazardous ...

Species‐By‐Species Pattern Analysis of Coastal Dune Vegetation

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 130, Issue 2, February 2025.
Abstract Vegetation is crucial for stabilizing and developing coastal dunes. Different plant species exhibit different spatial distributions which reflect their environmental role and adaptation strategy. This study aims to provide a fine‐scale species‐by‐species analysis of vegetation spatial patterns on coastal dunes within the San Rossore–Migliarino–

Derivation of Orthometric Heights from GPS Measured Heights Using Geometric Technique and EGM96 Model

open access: yesFUTY Journal of the Environment, 2011
As a result of wide spread use of satellite based positioning techniques, especially Global Positioning System (GPS), a greater attention has been focused on precise determination of geoid models with an aim to replace the classical leveling with Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) measurements.

Glacier thickness modelling and monitoring with geophysical data constraints: A case study on the Indren Glacier (NW Italy)

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 50, Issue 1, January 2025.
An updated model of ice thickness is retrieved for the Indren Glacier (Northwestern Italian Alps) through GPR data constraints. Remote sensing data and temperature analyses are used to reconstruct the ice thickness variations over the last two decades approximately.
