Just in time for #Cryo2iceSymposium next week! Have a look at our preprint on cracking the snow code from altimetry using multi-frequency airborne observations along a dual-frequency near-coincident @esa_cryosat and @NASA_ICESat2 orbit! Marking also the last study of my PhD! 🛰
Discussion open for comments on @EgUsphere: Exploring microwave penetration into snow on Antarctic summer sea ice along CryoSat-2 and ICESat-2 (CRYO2ICE) orbit from multi-frequency air- and spaceborne altimetry https://t.co/5nO8HY4hbB
We've investigated the CryoVEx/DEFIANT Antarctic 2022/2023 campaign data for the CRYO2ICE sea ice under-flight on December 13 2022 over the Weddell Sea in our preprint: https://t.co/HWnXdy4h9w. Have a look, and let's discuss!
Discussion open for comments: Dual-hemisphere sea ice thickness reference measurements from multiple data sources for evaluation and product inter-comparison of satellite altimetry https://t.co/AMkLZK9E3y
It was great to see @rmfredensborg present this at #Cryo2ice!
New preprint: "Exploring microwave penetration into snow on Antarctic summer sea ice along #CryoSat and ICESat-2 (CRYO2ICE) orbit from multi-frequency air- and spaceborne altimetry"

Suggestions going forwards? 1⃣ This is only one example of airborne data, we need to evaluate more to understand impact of different systems and sesonal signals! 2⃣ Modelling backscatter taking into account the differences between air- and spaceborne systems can provide insights!
Excited for #CRISTAL? So are we! Take a look at our preprint investigating the potential for snow depth estimation from dual-frequency altimetry using current satellite missions, and get a taste of future expectations with simulations based on the design of #IRIS!
@sthendric@dr_slfarrell@esa_cryosat@NASA_ICE@AWI_Media Indeed! Many different aspects to consider, especially for comparing between air- and spaceborne! 🛰
Iceland is treating us well, even though not everyone is here... Hopefully next year, we can all discuss even more radar and laser altimetry consolidation in person!
@dr_slfarrell@esa_cryosat@NASA_ICE And other works using @AWI_Media#ICEBird with low-altitude flights too (https://t.co/ux4qrHtVCi) have shown #wavelets to overestimate and primarily capture thicker snow ❄️, so much still to learn with all these different retackers and where to track the interfaces!
We join the 27th IAHR Int. Symp. on Ice in Gdánsk, Poland, this week. @rmfredensborg presented sea ice ridge statistics in Barents Sea and Fram Strait from #ICESat-2! 🛰️
Interesting discussions on deformed ice, offshore ice-ocean-structure, applications of remote sensing! ⛴️🧊❄️
@hskourup and @rmfredensborg at ESA-ESRIN for the #St3TART-FO kick-off meeting! Exited to continue on the procedures for establishing fiducial reference measurements (#FRMs) for #Sentinel-3 Altimetry Cryo products 🛰, to support validation of altimetry sea ice variables ❄️🧊
This is just the sort of thing we're looking for at the #Cryo2ice symposium 🤩

Paper celebration day! 📝 We may not be able to share the snacks with you, but we can definitely share our latest papers! Check out the links below if you're looking for some Sunday reading material.
Enjoy diving into the research! 📚

❗️❗️❗️Are you as excited about the upcoming #ESA#CRISTAL mission and estimating snow depth from dual-frequency altimetry along the orbits as us? We've evaluated this possiblity - albeit from laser and radar - from Arctic #CRYO2ICE orbits for 2020-2022! ➡️https://t.co/Jfgehu4nSm
