David Harding was particularly active at the recent AGU meeting in San Francisco. He gave an invited paper, "Method for Hydrologic Monitoring" in the special session ICESAT: New Light on a Changing World, and then represented "Land Applications" at a follow-up ICESat press conference. He was also a co-author on seven other papers at the meeting, which are listed below. |
In his own paper and again at the press conference, Harding showed examples of how "ICESat is a pathfinder for globally-distributed, highly-precise lidar measurements of changing river height & slope". ICESat profiles from the lower Mississippi are shown below.
