Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Statistics
  • Climate change
  • Oceanography

Scott B. Luthcke focuses on Geodesy, Remote sensing, Ice sheet, Altimeter and Climatology. Scott B. Luthcke regularly ties together related areas like Satellite in his Geodesy studies. His Remote sensing research integrates issues from Ocean surface topography and Orbit determination.

Scott B. Luthcke studied Ice sheet and Glacier that intersect with Snow, Climate change and Sea level. In his study, Spatial variability and Bay is strongly linked to Trend surface analysis, which falls under the umbrella field of Altimeter. His work on Geopotential model and EGM96 as part of general Geoid research is often related to Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System, Geopotential and Geodetic datum, thus linking different fields of science.

His most cited work include:

  • A reconciled estimate of ice-sheet mass balance (1013 citations)
  • The Development of the Joint NASA GSFC and the National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA) Geopotential Model EGM96 (813 citations)
  • Recent Greenland Ice Mass Loss by Drainage System from Satellite Gravity Observations (340 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Geodesy, Remote sensing, Altimeter, Satellite and Climatology. Scott B. Luthcke merges Geodesy with Gravimetry in his research. His research in the fields of Radar altimeter and Lidar overlaps with other disciplines such as Satellite laser ranging and Geolocation.

The Altimeter study which covers Sea level that intersects with Time series. His work on DORIS as part of general Satellite research is frequently linked to Terrestrial reference frame, thereby connecting diverse disciplines of science. His research on Climatology also deals with topics like

  • Glacier which connect with Ice sheet,
  • Meteorology that intertwine with fields like Grid.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Geodesy (42.68%)
  • Remote sensing (32.48%)
  • Altimeter (28.66%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Remote sensing (32.48%)
  • Antarctic ice sheet (8.92%)
  • Altimeter (28.66%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Scott B. Luthcke spends much of his time researching Remote sensing, Antarctic ice sheet, Altimeter, Geolocation and Geodesy. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Forest management and Global ecosystem. Scott B. Luthcke carries out multidisciplinary research, doing studies in Antarctic ice sheet and Satellite laser ranging.

Scott B. Luthcke conducted interdisciplinary study in his works that combined Altimeter and Gravimetry. In his works, he performs multidisciplinary study on Geodesy and Design process. Scott B. Luthcke interconnects Glacier, Sea ice, Ocean surface topography and Ice cloud in the investigation of issues within Ice sheet.

Between 2018 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • The Global Ecosystem Dynamics Investigation: High-resolution laser ranging of the Earth’s forests and topography (82 citations)
  • The Ice, Cloud, and Land Elevation Satellite – 2 mission: A global geolocated photon product derived from the Advanced Topographic Laser Altimeter System (51 citations)
  • Biomass estimation from simulated GEDI, ICESat-2 and NISAR across environmental gradients in Sonoma County, California (29 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Statistics
  • Climate change
  • Oceanography

His primary areas of investigation include Lidar, Remote sensing, Atmospheric sciences, Ice sheet and Altimeter. His Lidar study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Mean squared error, Daytime and Transect. His Interferometric synthetic aperture radar and Lidar data study, which is part of a larger body of work in Remote sensing, is frequently linked to Image resolution, Amplitude ratio and Root mean square, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His Atmospheric sciences research includes elements of Biodiversity, Sea level rise and Antarctic ice sheet. His Ice sheet study combines topics in areas such as Elevation, Sea ice, Ocean surface topography, Ice cloud and Glacier. His Altimeter study incorporates themes from Biomass, Canopy, Leaf area index, Vegetation and Ecosystem model.
