Monthly Monitoring of Greenland Glacier Dynamics Using Swath processed CryoSat-2 SARIn Data

This study presents a novel methodology for developing monthly surface elevation change maps from over a decade of CryoSat-2 Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry (SARIn) data. This offers a detailed spatial and temporal understanding of sub-annual mass loss from Greenland Ice Sheet glaciers. Leveraging the satellite's swath processing capabilities, we derive precise surface elevations to capture seasonal variations. The resulting maps enable us to identify and analyze dynamic glacier changes, and responses to climatic conditions. This research enhances our comprehension of glacier dynamics and aids in validating the mass loss from the Greenland ice sheet. It contributes data for predicting future sea-level rise in the context of climate change.
