Assessing Potential Landing Sites With Favorable Illumination and Accessible, Potentially Volatile‐Rich Permanently Shadowed Regions Within Artemis Candidate Landing Regions

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The lunar south pole features permanently shadowed regions (PSRs) that never receive direct sunlight. These regions maintain cold temperatures that potentially trap and accumulate volatiles over geologic timescales. Within NASA's Artemis candidate landing regions, we identified 130 candidate landing sites (CLSs) that satisfy the Human Landing ...

Multi-Satellite Altimeter Validation along the French Atlantic Coast in the Southern Bay of Biscay from ERS-2 to SARAL

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2018
Monitoring changes in coastal sea levels is necessary given the impacts of climate change. Information on the sea level and its changes are important parameters in connection to climate change processes.

Improving the altimetric rain record from Jason-1 & Jason-2 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Dual-frequency rain-flagging has long been a standard part of altimetric data analysis, both for quality control of the data and for the study of rain itself, because altimeters can provide a finer spatial sampling of rain than can passive microwave ...

Impacts of Temperature‐ and Stress‐Dependent Rheology on Ice‐Shelf‐Front Bending

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Classical treatments of ice‐shelf bending suggest that shelf fronts should bend downwards, due to the distribution of hydrostatic water pressure at the front. However, LiDAR data show several instances of upward‐bending ice‐shelf fronts. While this phenomenon has often been attributed to a buoyant force from a submerged ice bench, recent work ...

Effects of Interferometric Radar Altimeter Errors on Marine Gravity Field Inversion

open access: yesSensors, 2020
The traditional altimetry satellite, which is based on pulse-limited radar altimeter, only measures ocean surface heights along tracks; hence, leads to poorer accuracy in the east component of the vertical deflections compared to the north component ...

Guided Unconditional and Conditional Generative Models for Super‐Resolution and Inference of Quasi‐Geostrophic Turbulence

open access: yesJournal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Typically, numerical simulations of Earth systems are coarse, and Earth observations are sparse and gappy. We apply four generative diffusion modeling approaches to super‐resolution and inference of forced two‐dimensional quasi‐geostrophic turbulence on the β $\beta $‐plane from coarse, sparse, and gappy observations.

Rain and ice flagging of Envisat altimeter and MWR data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Altimetry range, wave height, and wind speed measurements are often corrupted by two effects over the ocean: rain and sea-ice. Radiometer measurements, which provide the altimetric wet troposphere correction, are similarly corrupted by the presence of ...

Monitoring Flood Inundation Dynamics From Space

open access: yesReviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 1, March 2026.
Abstract With the increasing intensity and frequency of flood events worldwide, the need for accurate and timely inundation mapping has never been more critical. Large‐scale flood extent estimations are vital for coordinating effective disaster response, facilitating recovery, and building future resilience.

Nanosats for Radar Altimetry

open access: yes, 2015
Radar altimeters such as TOPEX/Poseidon and Jason-2 measure the sea surface height as well as wave height and wind speed, providing key information about the ocean. The U.S. Navy previously launched the Geodesic Satellite (GEOSAT) and the GEOSAT Follow On (GFO), and has considered developing other missions.
