9/ You can learn more about the #Cryo2Ice Campaign which realigned #ESA 's #Cryosat2 to have better coincidence to #NASA's #ICESat2 which made this study possible:

In July 2020, ESA conducted a campaign to change the orbit of its CryoSat-2 satellite to periodically align with NASA's ICESat-2.

6/ 🤔 Why does this matter? Snow depth on sea ice is correlated with sea ice thickness. Accurate monitoring helps Arctic communities and climate science.

4/ 🌊 We validated our results using in situ measurements near Cambridge Bay, Nunavut. On average, Cryo2Ice snow depths underestimated in situ values by 2 to 4 cm, but the snow depth distributions match well between Cryo2ice and in-situ.

3/ 🔍 Our study is the first to assess snow depth retrieval using #Cryo2Ice data in a leadless region. Without leads to estimate sea surface height, we developed a method using ellipsoidal height differences between the satellites and accounting for tides.

2/ ❄️ Snow depth on Arctic sea ice is crucial for understanding ice thickness, ecosystem processes, and supporting human activities. But in leadless regions like the Canadian Arctic, measuring snow depth is particularly challenging.
