   Abstract : The sea ice cover in the Arctic is undergoing drastic changes. Since the start of satellite observations by microwave remote sensing in the late 1970's, the maximum summer sea ice extent has been decreasing and thereby causing a generally thinner and younger sea ice cover. READ MORE

5. 3. Satellite Radar Altimetry for Determination of Geoid Undulations and Gravity Anomalies

   Author : Jonas P. Noréus; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; resolution; water vapour; geodesy; geoid undulations; gravity anomalies; precision; kriging; satellite remote sensing; radar altimetry;

   Abstract : The sea level changes both temporally (due to dynamic effects) and spatially (due to sea bottom topography and inhomogeneities in the Earth's crust). Satellite radar altimetry is a remote sensing technique which can be used for e.g. determination of the instantaneous and mean sea level, and gravity anomalies at sea. READ MORE
