Journal ArticleDOI

Synthetic aperture radar interferometry

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the techniques of interferometry, systems and limitations, and applications in a rapidly growing area of science and engineering, including cartography, geodesy, land cover characterization, and natural hazards.
Journal ArticleDOI

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

Marine Ice Sheet Collapse Potentially Under Way for the Thwaites Glacier Basin, West Antarctica

TL;DR: Using a numerical model, the sensitivity of Thwaites Glacier to ocean melt and whether its unstable retreat is already under way is investigated, and the simulations indicate that early-stage collapse has begun.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet from 1992 to 2017.

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.
