Signal Photon Extraction Method for Weak Beam Data of ICESat-2 Using Information Provided by Strong Beam Data in Mountainous Areas

The Ice, Cloud, and land Elevation Satellite-2 (ICESat-2) can measure the elevations of the Earth’s surface using a sampling strategy with unprecedented spatial detail. In the daytime of mountainous areas where the signal–noise ratio (SNR) of weak beam data is very low, current algorithms do not alw...
