Detecting an Ocean Inside Callisto With Geodetic Measurements From Europa Clipper and Juice
Abstract Determining whether Callisto hosts a subsurface ocean, and the implications for material and energy transport through its hydrosphere, is of high interest to NASA's Europa Clipper and ESA's Juice missions. A recent reanalysis of Galileo magnetometer data strengthens the ocean hypothesis, but definitive confirmation awaits new measurements.

Corrections to altimeter-measured sea surface height anomalies (SSHA) have a larger proportional effect for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) altimetry than conventional, pulse-limited altimetry because of lower range noise.

First Assessment of ICESat‐2 Summer Sea Ice Freeboard With Airborne Validation
Abstract ICESat‐2 has demonstrated solid performance in retrieving sea ice freeboard during winter, when sea ice surface types are well‐defined and leads provide reliable sea surface height references. Summer retrievals are challenging because melt ponds are not explicitly distinguished in the ATL07 surface classification and may be identified as ice ...

Abstract Only one quarter of the global ocean floor has been directly surveyed; the remaining three quarters are inferred from satellite altimeter‐derived gravity data using techniques developed in the 1990s. These classical methods correlate gravity anomalies with known depths and extrapolate bathymetry in unsounded regions.

Assimilation of Velocity Data for Tidal Hydrodynamics Model Calibration
Abstract Assessing tidal stream energy resource typically involves the application of numerical models calibrated against sparse Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) data. This introduces significant challenges in energetic sites which are prone to significant spatiotemporal variations, like the Pentland Firth, Scotland, which is home to the world ...

Disentangling Internal Tides From Balanced Motions With Deep Learning and Surface Field Synergy
Abstract A fundamental challenge in ocean dynamics is disentangling balanced motions and internal waves. Extracting internal tidal (IT) imprints from surface data is a central part of this challenge. Traditional harmonic analysis fails under strong incoherence and poor temporal sampling, as in global satellite observations.

The Sentinel-3A and Sentinel-3B satellites, launched in February 2016 and April 2018 respectively, build on the legacy of CryoSat-2 by providing high-resolution Ku-band radar altimetry data over the polar regions up to 81° North.

Abstract Accurate specification of the ionosphere is essential for mitigating the impacts of space weather on communication, navigation, and surveillance systems. ANCHOR is a newly developed ionospheric data assimilation (DA) model from the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory that fuses measurements from ionosondes, radio occultation, and Global Navigation ...

Abstract The evolution and connectivity of subglacial drainage systems control basal sliding and therefore modulate ice motion, yet direct observations of these systems remain limited. Here, we investigate hydraulic connectivity and its influence on ice motion at Isunnguata Sermia, a large land‐terminating outlet glacier of the Greenland Ice Sheet.
