We demonstrate the efficacy of a commercial portable 2D laser scanner (operating at a wavelength close to 1,000 nm) deployed from a fixed-wing aircraft for measuring the sea surface topography and wave profiles over coastal waters.

Assessing the impact of future altimeter constellations in the Met Office global ocean forecasting system [PDF]
Satellite altimeter measurements of sea surface height (SSH) are a crucial component of current operational ocean forecasting systems. The launch of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) wide-swath altimeter (WiSA) mission is bringing a step ...

Floods From Space: How Remote Sensing, AI, and Cloud Platforms Are Reshaping Disaster Risk Reduction
ABSTRACT Flooding remains one of the most damaging climate‐related hazards globally, yet flood remote sensing has historically developed largely along sensor‐specific pathways. This review addresses the need for a systematic and decision‐oriented synthesis of how space‐borne remote sensing has evolved toward integrated flood monitoring and disaster ...

A Deep Learning Approach to Extract Balanced Motions From Sea Surface Height Snapshot
Extracting balanced geostrophic motions (BM) from sea surface height (SSH) observations obtained by wide‐swath altimetry holds great significance in enhancing our understanding of oceanic dynamic processes at submesoscale wavelength.

Satellite Altimetry Reveals an Eddy Train Along the Ross Sea Shelf Break
Abstract Oceanic circulation along the Antarctic shelf break regulates heat and material exchanges between the continental shelf and the open ocean, playing a crucial role in ice shelf melting and global overturning circulation. However, the circulation remains poorly understood due to limited observations.

On the retrieval of sea ice thickness and snow depth using concurrent laser altimetry and L-band remote sensing data [PDF]
The accurate knowledge of sea ice parameters, including sea ice thickness and snow depth over the sea ice cover, is key to both climate studies and data assimilation in operational forecasts.

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 Despite millions of ship soundings, bathymetry from satellite derived gravity is still necessary to fill in approximately three quarters of the global oceans. The methods used to carry out this inference have not changed significantly since the 1990s; however new methodology involving Machine Learning (ML) improves the bathymetric predictions ...
