    EnviSat was a satellite mission monitoring Earth's environment. EnviSat application areas included meteorology, climatology, environment, atmospheric chemistry, vegetation, hydrology, land use, and ocean and ice processes. EnviSat was a research mission that carried ten instruments and provided a wealth of data related to Earth's health and climate change. EnviSat carried the Medium Resolution Imaging Spectrometer( MERIS), Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS), Radar Altimeter-2 (RA-2), Laser Retro-Reflector (LRR), Microwave Radiometer (MWR), Advanced SAR (ASAR), Global Ozone Monitoring by Occultation of Stars (GOMOS), Scanning Imaging Absorption Spectrometer for Atmospheric Cartography (SCIAMACHY), Advanced Along Track Scanning Radiometer, provided by the UK and Australia (AATSR), and Doppler Orbitography and Radiopositioning Integrated by Satellite (DORIS).

    Prior and posterior uncertainties of sea ice volume (SIV, columns 4-6) and snow volume (SNV, columns 7-9) respectively for three regions in km3. Column 1 indicates observation, column 2 indicates uncertainty range ("product" refers to uncertainty specification provided with product), column 3 indicates uncertainty range of additional hypothetical snow product ("-" means no snow product is used). In each of columns 4-9 the lowest uncertainty range is highlighted in bold face font. The two bottom rows give estimates for the uncertainty due to model error, i.e. the residual uncertainty with optimal control vector.

    Arctide2017 is a high-resolution tidal atlas of the Arctic Ocean. Developed by NOVELTIS, DTU Space and LEGOS, it combines altimeter data from ESA's Envisat and CryoSat satellites into the most complete dataset used in the Arctic region to estimate tidal information

    Prototype system for Arctic Mission Benefit Analysis (ArcMBA) that makes a mathematically rigorous evaluation of the effect that observational constraints imposed by individual and groups of EO (and in situ) data products would have in an advanced data assimilation system. The assessment is performed in terms of the uncertainty reduction in simulated/predicted sea ice, snow, and oceanic target quantities of scientific and societal interest.

    The Antarctic Oscillation (AAO) is the dominant pattern of non-seasonal tropospheric circulation variations south of 20S, and it is characterized by pressure anomalies of one sign centered in the Antarctic and anomalies of the opposite sign centered about 40-50S. The AAO is also referred to as the Southern Annular Mode (SAM). There is a Northern Hemisphere analog to the AAO, and it is called the Arctic Oscillation (or Northern Annular Mode).
