TL;DR: The Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) mission as discussed by the authors measured changes in elevation of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets as part of NASA's Earth Observing System (EOS) of satellites.
Book
Statistical Orbit Determination
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of matrix concepts for near-circular orbits and propose a solution of the linearized Equations of Motion (LEM) problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overview of the ICESat Mission
TL;DR: The Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS) on the NASA Ice, Cloud and land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) has provided a view of the Earth in three dimensions with unprecedented accuracy as mentioned in this paper.

TL;DR: The ICESat-2 mission is a follow-on to the ICES-1 mission with three pairs of beams, each pair separated by about 3 km cross-track with a pair spacing of 90 m as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: NASA's Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2), currently planned for launch in 2015, is specifically intended to quantify the amount of change in ice sheets and sea ice and provide key insights into their behavior through the use of precise laser measurements of surface elevation.
