ESA Antarctic Ice Sheet Climate Change Initiative (Antarctic_Ice_Sheet_cci) Dataset Collection

Collection of datasets from the European Space Agency's (ESA) Antarctic Ice Sheets Climate Change Initiative (CCI) project. This is producing long term and reliable climate data records from satellite data for a number of Essential Climate Variables (ECV's) for Antarctica.

Current data products relate to Ice Velocities, Gravimetric Mass Balance, Grounding Line Locations and Surface Elevation Changes.
