The CryoSat+ Mountain Glaciers project has demonstrated the benefit of using CryoSat-2 swath processing for retrieving elevation and rates of surface elevation change over ice caps and glaciers. The purpose of this project extension is to expand on the work
Elevation over High Mountain Asia
CS+Mountain Glaciers project has produced elevation data over High Mountain Asia with unprecedent coverage.
Elevation over Alaska
CS+Mountain Glaciers project has produced elevation data over Alaska
Elevation data over Canada
CS+Mountain Glaciers project has produced elevation data over Canadian Rockies.
Southern Hemisphere Mass Loss
Swath Processing will allow to better estimate Rates of surface elevation change, Mass loss and contribution to Sea Level Rise in the Southern Hemisphere
Artic Mass Loss
Swath Processing has allowed to better estimate Rates of surface elevation change, Mass loss and contribution to Sea Level Rise in the Artic
