Since the Sun - synchronous orbit of the NPOESS platforms is not acceptable for
measuring global sea level change with the required precision, the loss of the NPOESS altimeter has little impact on continuation of this CDR.

Because ice sheets contain so much ice and have the potential to raise or lower
global sea level so dramatically,
measuring the mass balance of the ice sheets and tracking any mass balance
changes and their causes is very important for forecasting
sea level rise.
