Retrieval and Attribution of Tropical Cyclone Vertical Tilt From SAR and Infrared Satellite Imagery
Abstract Tropical cyclones (TCs) are destructive natural hazards, and their vertical tilt, defined as the displacement between the sea surface center and cloud top center, plays a key role in storm structure and intensity changes. This study constructed a global satellite‐based tilt data set from 1,024 paired synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and infrared

Synoptic Controls of Extreme Ice Area Flux Events Along Nares Strait
Abstract Nares Strait, the channel between Ellesmere Island and northwest Greenland, connects the Arctic Ocean's Lincoln Sea to northern Baffin Bay. The transport of thick, multi‐year sea ice southward down the Strait contributes to the overall loss of this important ice class from the Arctic.

A delay model for satellite constellation networks with inter-satellite links [PDF]
Within this paper we examine a non-geostationary satellite constellation network with inter-satellite links (ISLs) for global air traffic control (ATC) and air passenger communication (APC).

Abstract Few multi‐year observations of CO2 gas exchange exist over melting first year sea ice (FYI). We report 4 years of CO2 flux data during the melt season in Dease Strait, Nunavut, Canada. Utilizing a dried, closed‐path eddy covariance system on an island within the strait, we identify two statistically distinct CO2 flux melt regimes: a pre‐pond ...

Autonomous control of a reconfigurable constellation of satellites on geostationary orbit with artificial potential fields [PDF]
This paper presents a method of controlling a constellation of small satellites in Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) such that the constellation is able to reconfigure - changing the angular position of its members relative to the Earth’s surface in order ...

Monitoring Flood Inundation Dynamics From Space
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.

On multidimensional BICM-ID constellation labelling [PDF]
It is widely recognised that the choice of a specific bit-to-symbol mapping scheme or a beneficial constellation labelling is an influential factor, when designing bit-inter-leaved coded modulation using iterative decoding (BICM-ID) for the sake of ...
