Lakes are integrators of environmental change occurring at both the regional and global
scale. They present a wide range of behavior on a variety of timescales (cyclic and secular) …

For more than 10 years, satellite radar altimetry has been a successful technique for
monitoring the variation in elevation of continental surface water, such as inland seas, lakes …

To understand how planet Earth works we study it increasingly as a system–a collection of
interdependent parts or spheres–the lithosphere, the hydrosphere, the cryosphere, the …

This study sets out to analyze the stages of water bodies in the Amazon basin derived from
the processing of ERS-2 and ENVISAT satellite altimetry data. For ENVISAT, GDR …

Since the launch of the ENVISAT satellite in 2002, the Radar Altimetry Mission provides
systematic observations of the Earth topography. Among the different goals of the ENVISAT …

Satellite remote sensing is a convenient tool for studying snow and glacier ice, allowing us
to conduct research over large and otherwise inaccessible areas. This paper reviews …

For at least 20 years, nadir altimetry satellite missions have been successfully used to first
monitor the surface elevation of oceans and, shortly after, of large rivers and lakes. For the …

Remote sensing and satellite geodetic observations are capable of hydrologic monitoring of
freshwater resources. Although satellite radar altimetry has been used in monitoring water …

We developed a multi-mission satellite altimetry analysis over the Antarctic Ice Sheet which
comprises Seasat, Geosat, ERS-1, ERS-2, Envisat, ICESat and CryoSat-2. After a consistent …

Water level fluctuations of continental lakes are related to regional to global scale climate
changes. Water level fluctuations reflect variations in evaporation and precipitation over the …
