Impressive achievements in cryospheric observations were related to recent completion of the first Cryosat-2 calibration reprocessing campaign. The importance of measurements obtained using CryoSat-2 is particularly high now due to the completion of the Envisat mission.  Currently, the CryoSat radar altimeter is instrumental in bridging past and future ocean altimetry missions.  However we will be able to augment this data with the future launch of the Sentinel – 1A mission.
