Monthly glacier mass changes from CryoSat-2 radar altimetry

We generate a record of ice loss across glaciers globally for the first time from CryoSat-2 swath interferometric radar altimetry. CryoSat-2’s orbital sub-cycle of 30 days allows us to resolve changes at high temporal resolution for Alaska, Arctic Canada North and South, Greenland periphery glaciers...

Description
Summary:We generate a record of ice loss across glaciers globally for the first time from CryoSat-2 swath interferometric radar altimetry. CryoSat-2’s orbital sub-cycle of 30 days allows us to resolve changes at high temporal resolution for Alaska, Arctic Canada North and South, Greenland periphery glaciers, Iceland, Svalbard, Franz Josef Land, Novaya Zemlya, Severnaya Zemlya, High Mountain Asia, Southern Andes and Antarctic periphery glaciers between 2010 and 2020.
