The US-India NASA-ISRO Synthetic Aperture Radar or NISAR mission will observe the Earth down to the centimetre, monitoring ...
You can measure the height of both the ice sheet and the sea. This is done by a satellite sending a radar or laser signal down to Earth and then measuring the time it takes for the signal to be ...
Sentinel-1C's advanced radar captures intricate details of ... Copernicus services and applications, including Arctic sea-ice monitoring, iceberg tracking, routine sea-ice mapping and glacier ...
Satellites can now measure the thickness of sea-ice covering the Arctic Ocean all year round. Traditionally, spacecraft have struggled to determine the full state of the floes in summer months ...
monitoring these dynamic ice-ocean interactions wouldn't be possible. Ongoing warming is likely to accelerate ice loss, and our data show how glaciers contribute to global sea-level rise.
