Data set update: CryoSat-2 Level-1B Waveforms, Sea Ice Elevation, and Surface Roughness

The CryoSat-2 Level-1B Waveforms, Sea Ice Elevation, and Surface Roughness, Version 1 data set, accessible through the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC), is being updated to complete the season through 15 May 2022. Data are currently available through 21 April 2022, and all remaining data will be released as they are processed. This data set contains surface elevations from retracked CryoSat-2 waveforms, as well as model fitting parameters used to retrack the waveform. The primary data set used in the production of these data come from the ESA CryoSat-2 satellite.
