Jan Melchior van Wessem,Willem Jan van de Berg,Brice Noël,Erik van Meijgaard,Charles Amory,Gerit Birnbaum,Constantijn L. Jakobs,Konstantin Krüger,Jan T. M. Lenaerts,Stef Lhermitte,Stefan R. M. Ligtenberg,Brooke Medley,Carleen Reijmer,Kristof Van Tricht,Luke D. Trusel,Lambertus H. van Ulft,Bert Wouters,Jan Wuite,Michiel R. van den Broeke +18 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluate modelled Antarctic ice sheet (AIS) near-surface climate, surfacemass balance (SMB) and surface energy balance (SEB) from the updated polar version of the regional atmospheric climate model, RACMO2 (1979-2016).
Journal ArticleDOI
The Sentinel-1 Mission: New Opportunities for Ice Sheet Observations
TL;DR: The potential of the Sentinel-1 mission for mapping and monitoring the surface velocity of glaciers and ice sheets is addressed and special features of IW mode data are discussed, procedures for producing ice velocity maps are described, and the uncertainty of the ice motion product is assessed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Glacier Remote Sensing Using Sentinel-2. Part I: Radiometric and Geometric Performance, and Application to Ice Velocity
TL;DR: The potential and limitations of tracking glacier flow from repeat Sentinel-2 data are characterized using a set of typical glaciers in different environments, finding a high radiometric performance, but with slight striping effects under certain conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Error sources and guidelines for quality assessment of glacier area, elevation change, and velocity products derived from satellite data in the Glaciers_cci project
Frank Paul,Tobias Bolch,Kate Briggs,Andreas Kääb,Malcolm McMillan,Robert McNabb,Thomas Nagler,Christopher Nuth,Philipp Rastner,Tazio Strozzi,Jan Wuite +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a systematic overview on the factors influencing accuracy and precision of glacier area, elevation change (from altimetry and DEM differencing), and velocity products derived from satellite data, along with measures for calculating them is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
The modelled surface mass balance of the Antarctic Peninsula at 5.5 km horizontal resolution
J. M. van Wessem,Stefan R. M. Ligtenberg,Carleen Reijmer,W. J. van de Berg,M. R. van den Broeke,Nicholas E. Barrand,Elizabeth R. Thomas,John Turner,Jan Wuite,Ted Scambos,E. van Meijgaard +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a high-resolution (∼ 5.5 km) estimate of surface mass balance (SMB) over the period 1979-2014 for the Antarctic Peninsula (AP), generated by the regional atmospheric climate model RACMO2.3 and a firn densification model (FDM).
