We have developed a novel #AI based approach for tracking radar #altimetry measurements over ice sheets. This new AWI-ICENet1 retracker reduces the effect of signal penetration and outperforms current retracking methods. Preprint now open for discussion: https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-2023-80

The Sources Of Sea-Level Changes In The Mediterranean Sea Since 1960

KEY POINTS:
• The average rate of sea-level rise in the Mediterranean Sea increased from −0.3 mm yr−1 in the period 1960–1989 to 3.6 mm yr−1 in 2000–2018
• Sterodynamic and land-mass changes both have made comparable contributions to the Mediterranean sea-level rise since 2000
• Since 2000, sea level has been rising faster in the Adriatic, Aegean, and Levantine Seas than anywhere else in the Mediterranean Sea…”

I always enjoy thinking about novel ways to combine #RemoteSensing datasets!

This new paper, led by Clément Soriot, shows that observations made by radiometers (AMSR, SMAP) strongly correlate with high-precision, #Altimetry-derived estimates of #SeaIce thickness in the #Arctic.

This technique could allow us to create a #TimeSeries of daily sea-ice thickness back to the 1980's.
