Abstract

Rapid changes in the Greenland Ice Sheet require precise elevation monitoring to understand ice dynamics and predict sea level rise. X-band Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) has the potential for this purpose but is limited by microwave signal penetration biases, which can be a few meters. We present a novel hybrid modeling approach that integrates machine learning (ML) with physical models to enhance the estimation of the elevation bias in InSAR data at X-band.
