Using ICESat-2 and Operation IceBridge altimetry for supraglacial lake depth retrievals

<p>Supraglacial lakes and melt ponds occur in the ablation zones of Antarctica and Greenland during the summer months. Detection of lake extent, depth, and temporal evolution is important for understanding glacier dynamics. Previous remote sensing observations of lake depth are limited to esti...
