The Ice Altimetry System (IAS) CD-ROM contains surface elevations of the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets derived from Seasat and GEOSAT radar altimetry data. The Seasat data were collected for ...
Southern Greenland ice sheet elevation change estimates are derived from
SEASAT and GEOSAT radar altimetry data from 1978 to 1988. Data are
confined to 61-72 ...
Satellite Laser Ranging precisely measures laser signals bounced off
reflectors mounted on satellites. The satellite orbit and timing
of the signal is very precise. This method can fix ...
In Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR), a short pulse of coherent light generated by a laser (Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation) is transmitted in a narrow beam to illuminate corner ...
