Satellite observations of pan-Arctic sea ice thickness have so far been constrained to winter
months. For radar altimeters, conventional methods cannot differentiate leads from …

Satellite remote sensing is essential for monitoring surface water dynamics on Earth. Space-
borne altimeter observations have become an important data source to supplement in-situ …

Abstract Rain-on-snow (ROS) events can accelerate the surface ablation of sea ice, thus
greatly influencing the ice–albedo feedback. However, the variability of ROS events over the …

Hemisphere‐wide observations of melt ponds on sea ice are needed to understand their
influence on the surface radiation budget of the Arctic Ocean and to extend the satellite sea …

Earth system models are valuable tools for understanding how the Arctic snow‐ice system
and the feedbacks therein may respond to a warming climate. In this analysis, we investigate …

The lack of ground control points (GCPs) affects the elevation accuracy of digital surface
models (DSMs) generated by optical satellite stereo images and limits the application of …

Pan-Arctic observations of summer sea ice thickness have been a challenging problem
despite their global significance in weather/climate analysis and prediction. To solve this …

The state and fate of snow on sea ice are crucial in the mass and energy balance of sea ice.
The function of atmospheric rivers (ARs) on snow depth over sea ice has not been …

We assessed the distribution of biota (autotrophs and heterotrophs) and associated
carbonate chemistry variables in Arctic sea ice at latitudes> 82 N during late summer and …

NASA's ICESat-2 has been providing sea ice freeboard measurements across the polar
regions since October 2018. In spite of the outstanding spatial resolution and precision of …
