Satellite Radar Altimetry: Global Reservoir and Lake Elevation Database
A satellite radar altimeter is not an imaging device, but continuously records average surface `spot' heights as it transverses over the Earth's surface. Operating at ~13.6GHz, each altimeter emits a series of microwave pulses towards the surface. By noting the two-way time delay between pulse emission and echo reception, the surface height can be deduced. Each returned height value is an average of all surface heights found within the footprint of the altimeter. The diameter of the footprint depends on the surface roughness, but can typically range between 200m (for open pools of water in calm conditions) to a few kilometers (open water with surface waves). Each satellite is placed in a specific repeat orbit, so after a certain number of days the same point (to within 1km), on the Earth's surface is revisited. In this way, time series of surface height changes can be constructed for a particular location along the satellite ground track during the lifetime of the mission. ... [Read More]

Other Maryland schools with a broad catalog of online offerings include four-year institutions such as Capitol College; University of Maryland, College Park; The Johns Hopkins University; University of Maryland, Baltimore; and Goucher College. ... To the uninitiated, the University of Maryland University College (UMUC) could be any ordinary business complex. It is just four buildings - a hotel, two office buildings and a garage. However, this college campus, a stone's throw away from the State's flagship university, the University of Maryland, College Park, has worldwide power and reach. ... [Read More]
