This data set contains resampled and smoothed elevation measurements of Arctic and Antarctic sea ice, and Greenland, Antarctic and Arctic region land ice surface acquired using the NASA Airborne Topographic Mapper (ATM) instrumentation.

This data set consists of glacier regime parameters observed between 1945 and 2003. Data include annual mass balances, ablation, accumulation, and equilibrium-line altitude of mountain and subpolar glaciers outside the two major ice sheets. All available sources of information, such as publications, archived data, and personal communications have been collected, and include time series of more than 300 glaciers. Data have been digitized and quality checked.

This data set provides an Antarctic ice shelf grounding zone geolocation product, including the landward limit of ice flexure caused by ocean tidal movement (Point F), the seaward limit of ice flexure (Point H), and the break in surface slope (Point Ib) based on the ATLAS/ICESat-2 ATL06 Land Ice Height data set acquired between March 2019 and September 2020. The grounding zone estimates were derived from automated techniques using ICESat-2 repeat tracks.

This data set, part of the NASA Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) Program, consists of three as-complete-as-possible mosaic maps of velocities on the Antarctic ice sheet for the time periods 1995–2001, 2007–2009, and 2014–2017. The maps are posted at 450 m in the WGS 84/Antarctic Polar Stereographic projection. In addition to ice velocity, the data set provides maps of velocity error and standard deviation; counts of velocity estimates used per pixel; date ranges; and masks that delineate the ice fronts and grounding lines for the each period.

This dataset contains 50m horizontal resolution gridded digital elevation models (DEMs) of Greenland Ice Sheet outlet glaciers collected during the NASA Oceans Melting Greenland mission. Between 2016 and 2019 the GLacier and Land Ice Surface Topography Interferometer airborne (GLISTIN-A) radar measured surface elevations around the periphery of the Greenland Ice Sheet using Ka-Band (8.4 mm wavelength) single-pass interferometry. Level 2 (L2) GLISTIN-A elevation data, available on the JPL UAVSAR website (uavsar.jpl.nasa.gov), were collected each year in 81 swaths of varying lengths and 10-12km widths and then mapped to 3m horizontal grids. This Level 3 (L3) dataset was created to facilitate analysis of the year-to-year glacier surface elevation changes. Improvements over the L2 dataset include: a consistent swath numbering scheme (1 to 81) corresponding to repeated flight lines; common regular equal-area grids for each swath; filtering and flagging of outliers; an ancillary geoid layer; and UTM map projections corresponding to swath location. The interested user may generate their own L3 DEMs at different horizontal resolutions and projections using the Python 3 resample_GLISTIN_DEMs package available which will be available from https://github.com/NASA/resample_GLISTIN_DEMs

This data set contains estimates of Arctic sea ice thickness and concentration, ice freeboard and surface roughness, as well as snow density and depth, derived from the ESA CryoSat-2 Synthetic Aperture Interferometric Radar Altimeter (SIRAL). The data are provided daily on a 25 km grid as 30-day averages for the months between September and May.

This data set contains 6 and 12 day surface velocity estimates for the Greenland Ice Sheet and periphery derived from images acquired between 2015–2021 by the European Space Agency (ESA) Copernicus Sentinel-1A and Sentinel-1B satellites.

This data set contains land ice height changes and change rates for the Antarctic ice sheet and regions around the Arctic gridded at four spatial resolutions (1 km, 10 km, 20 km, and 40 km). The data are derived from the ATLAS/ICESat-2 L3B Slope-Corrected Land Ice Height Time Series product (ATL11).

This data set contains spot elevation measurements of Greenland, Arctic, and Antarctic sea ice acquired using the NASA Airborne Topographic Mapper (ATM) narrow-swath instrumentation. The data were collected as part of Operation IceBridge funded aircraft survey campaigns.
