Record #128652:

Ice sheet altimeter processing scheme / Jonathan L. Bamber.

Title: Ice sheet altimeter processing scheme / Jonathan L. Bamber.
Author(s): Bamber, Jonathan L.
Date: 1994.
In: International Journal of Remote Sensing. (1994.), Vol. 15(4) (1994)
Abstract: Analysis of altimeter data over non-ocean surfaces is complicated by effects of topography and dielectric properties of surface. Explains philosophy behind processing of altimeter data over ice sheets and shelves for Earth Observation Data Centre (EODC), and describes function and performance of algorithms used. Methods available for waveform retracking and slope correction, which represent primary difference between ocean and land altimeter data analysis, are discussed in detail. Results of their operation with Seasat altimeter data and simulated surface profile are provided to indicate likely performance with ERS-1 data. Contents and structure of ice-sheet data product are described and intended applications discussed. Future modifications and calibration/validation of data are also considered.
