In short: It’s not an apocalypse; it’s a data corrective. It proves that the engine room of our planet is a highly active, rapidly changing environment, and it took a constellation of advanced satellites sixteen years of data-crunching to finally reveal what happened right under our feet.#Geophysics

Insights into Earth’s molten outer core from space.
The liquid iron in Earth’s outer core doesn’t always behave as expected. When it changed direction in an unexplained way, ESA satellites provided data on the direction of flow, helping scientists gain better insight into the dynamics at the centre of our planet.

“During recent storms, satellites recorded ocean waves averaging nearly 20 metres high – the largest ever measured from space. Moreover, satellite data now reveal that ocean swells act as storm ‘messengers’ - even though a storm may never make landfall, its swell can travel vast distances and bring destructive energy to distant coastlines...
This record merges data from satellites such as #SARAL, #Jason3, #Copernicus #Sentinel 3A and 3B, Copernicus #Sentinel6 Michael Freilich, #CryoSat and #CFOSAT…”

Im langjährigen Mittel sind etwa 7 % der globalen Ozeanfläche von #Meereis bedeckt. Satelliten wie #CryoSat-2 (ESA) erfassen aus über 700 km Höhe kontinuierlich hochaufgelöste Höhenprofile der Meereisoberfläche. Diese #Satellitendaten ermöglichen die Analyse von Veränderungen und Trends und sind grundlegend für das Verständnis klimarelevanter Prozesse in den #Polarregionen. Radaraltimeter messen präzise den Abstand zwischen Satellit und Eisoberfläche. #Klimaforschung

Greenland Ice Sheet Shrinking at Incredible Rate
"Greenland ice sheet seen melting in real-time from Earth orbit
Agreement from two satellites CryoSat-2 and ICESat-2m. Between 2010 and 2023, Greenland lost 563 cubic miles (2,347 cubic kilometers) of ice, which is enough to fill Lake Victoria, Africa's largest lake."#climate #ClimateScience #ClimateEmergency #ClimateCrisis #ClimateBreakdown #climatecatastrophe #ExtremeWeather

On 21 November 2023, ESA’s #CryoSat satellite swapped to its back-up propulsion system after a fuel leak threatened to bring the mission to an end in 2025: https://www.esa.int/Enabling_Support/Operations/Life_beyond_the_leak_for_ESA_s_CryoSat - the swap has the potential to extend the life of the satellite by as much as 5 to 10 years. But the back-up thrusters had never been used before.

".. scientists have used a particular technique of processing CryoSat data to reveal that glaciers lost a whopping 2720 Gigatonnes of ice between 2010 and 2020."
"Their research also demonstrates that higher air temperatures are responsible for 89% of this ice loss."
