TL;DR: The scientific drivers and technical approach of the proposed Cold Regions Hydrology High-Resolution Observatory (CoReH2O) satellite mission for snow and cold land processes are described and the dual-frequency and dual-polarization design enables the decomposition of the scattering signal for retrieving snow mass and other physical properties of snow and ice.

TL;DR: The GEROS-ISS mission objectives are determined, the determination of the altimetric sea surface height of the oceans and of the ocean surface mean square slope are derived using reflected GNSS signals (GNSS reflectometry, GNSS-R).

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used repeat-pass SAR data to produce detailed maps of surface motion covering the glaciers draining into the former Larsen B Ice Shelf, Antarctic Peninsula, for different epochs between 1995 and 2013.

TL;DR: In this paper, a strategy for the combination of satellite, airborne and ground measurements is presented, based on ideas independently introduced by Sjoberg and Wenzel in the early 1980s and has been modified by using a quasi-deterministic approach for the determination of the weighting functions.

TL;DR: In this article, the spectral and broadband albedo of OLCI spectral reflectance measurements in the range 400-1020 nm were extracted from clean and polluted snow fields.
