A reconciled estimate of ice-sheet mass balance

TL;DR: There is good agreement between different satellite methods—especially in Greenland and West Antarctica—and that combining satellite data sets leads to greater certainty, and the mass balance of Earth’s polar ice sheets is estimated by combining the results of existing independent techniques.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Method for Estimating Soil Moisture from ERS Scatterometer and Soil Data

TL;DR: In this paper, the potential of using ERS scatterometer data for soil moisture monitoring over the Ukraine is investigated and a simple method is developed to relate the surface estimates with the profile soil moisture content.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: This work combines satellite observations of its changing volume, flow and gravitational attraction with modelling of its surface mass balance to show that the Antarctic Ice Sheet lost 2,720 ± 1,390 billion tonnes of ice between 1992 and 2017, which corresponds to an increase in mean sea level of 7.6‚¬3.9 millimetres.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sentinels for science: potential of Sentinel-1, -2, and -3 missions for scientific observations of ocean, cryosphere, and land

TL;DR: The Sentinel-1, -2, and -3 satellite missions can meet various observational needs for spatially explicit physical, biogeophysical, and biological variables of the ocean, cryosphere, and land research activities as mentioned in this paper.
