Andreas is a postdoctoral researcher at DTU Space, Technical University of Denmark. He studied electrical engineering at DTU, specialising in space technology, and completed his PhD at DTU Space in collaboration with ESA, developing deep learning methods to map Arctic sea ice in satellite radar imagery. He led the AutoICE Challenge, an international competition on …
In 2017, a BRAT training session was conducted at the TU Delft Summer School, offering hands-on instruction tailored for new users of the toolbox. The session included step-by-step exercises to guide participants in using the software for processing and analyzing altimetry datasets. Download all materials individually: Exercises Datasets Or both, as a single package, using …
A recently published paper, titled ALBATROSS: Advancing Southern Ocean Tide Modelling with High Resolution and Enhanced Bathymetry, introduces an advanced tidal model specifically tailored to the unique dynamics of the Southern Ocean and Antarctic regions. This research is the outcome of the ALBATROSS project, and combines high-resolution bathymetry data from the reprocessing of a decade-long CryoSat-2 …
The focus of CROSCIM is Arctic operations and the development of a processor that will take advantage of the novel products from the Copernicus Expansion missions and deliver near real time and short term forecast (up to 2 days) level 4 products for sea ice concentration, sea ice thickness, snow thickness, sea surface height anomaly …
The project’s primary objective is to evaluate the potential of wave renewable energy sources in coastal zones of Europe, Mediterranean and archipelagos where the energy can be efficiently harnessed. To achieve this objective, the project is processing the whole CryoSat, Sentinel-3A, and Sentinel-3B missions data over specific coastal zones and using the advanced SAMOSA+ retracker …
Background Following on from the 15, 20 and 25 “Years of Progress in Radar Altimetry” Symposia (respectively in 2006, 2012, and 2018), all deemed very successful milestones by the participants and the readership of the Proceedings, we have now reached the 30-year anniversary of precise altimetry. To mark this occasion the European Space Agency, in …
The Unfolding the Sea State Bias: Isolating a physical mechanism causing swell dependence of SAR altimeters (SwellStats) project is a project funded by ESA aiming at improving the reliability of the estimates of the sea surface’s geophysical parameters made by SAR altimetry processing, increasing its value to assess informed climate-related decisions. Estimates of the geophysical …
Living Planet Fellowship research project carried out by Kirk Scanlan. Expected sea-level rise through the remainder of the 21st century has been primarily attributed to the continued melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS). This loss of ice not only directly threatens coastal infrastructure around Europe but precipitates second-order effects such as proliferation of diseases, crop instability …
Living Planet Fellowship research project carried out by Antoine Hochet. Global mean sea level (GMSL) is considered one of the leading indicators of global climate change as it reflects changes taking place in different components of the climate system. Present-day sea level rise and its acceleration, currently estimated by high-precision satellite altimetry measurements, are primarily …
Earth Observation Advanced science Tools for Sea level Extreme Events (EOatSEE) is a project funded by ESA and proposed by a consortium of institutions and companies that are internationally recognized for their work in the Marine, Coastal and Earth Observation topics. It aims to provide an advanced reconstruction of the relevant processes included in extreme …
