Elevation Changes in Pine Island Glacier, Walgreen Coast, Antarctica, based on GLAS (2003) and ERS-1 (1995) Altimeter Data Analyses and Glaciological Implications
The Geoscience Laser Altimeter System (GLAS) aboard ICESat, launched in January 2003, has been designed to detect and monitor changes in the cryosphere. The first objective of this paper is to present highresolution ice-surface elevation maps derived from GLAS data, using geostatistical analysis. In a regional study of Walgreen Coast and Northern Ellsworth Land, West Antarctica, differences in ...
متن کاملApplication of SAR Interferometry on DEM Generation of the Grove Mountains
The Grove Mountains Area is situated to the southwest of Princess Elizabeth Land, the inland areas of east Antarctica. Adopting Landsat-4 TM images, a coloured satellite image map of Grove Mountains was produced and used to design an expedition route to Grove Mountains in 1998. In 2000, a field survey of the core area was completed with GPS and total station surveys. However, traditional mappin...
متن کاملA COMPAcr RADAR ALTIMETER SATELUTE FOR MONITORING GLOBAL CUMATE CHANGE
Altimetry has become the focus of global climate studies because it is the only tool available able to provide both mesoscale (100-500 kIn) and basin-scale (10,000 kIn) circulation information on a global, synoptic basis. . The Atlas-launched Navy Geosat mission proved the capability of the radar altimeter to measure the mesoscale ocean features. A lightsat compatible Geosat Follow-On Technolog...
متن کاملThe Topography and Surface Characteristics of the Larsen Ice Shelf, Antarctica, Using Satellite Altimetry
A comprehensive survey of the Larsen Ice Shelf has been conducted using precise orbit and re tracked Seasat radar-altimeter data with editing of erroneous values resulting from intrumental artefacts. Contour maps of elevation and radar back-scatter (with absolute accuracies of I m and 2 dB, respectively) have been produced and it has also been possible to map rifts, grounding points, rough terr...
متن کاملEstimation and Analysis of Precipitable Water Vapor Using GPS Data and Satellite Altimeter
Determination of water vapor in the atmosphere plays an important role in forecasting weather conditions and precipitation studies. For this reason, it is very important to study the tropospheric delay, especially the wet component, which is due to the presence of water vapor in the atmosphere. In this paper, the amount of water vapor was estimated by altimeter satellite radiometer and GPS data...
