NovaSAR-1 was launched into orbit on September 16, 2018 from Satish Dhawan Space Centre in Sriharikota, India. It was developed by the United Kingdom Space Agency (UKSA) in cooperation with the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO), the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO) and the Department of Science and Technology-Advanced Science and Technology Institute (DOST-ASTI) of the Republic of the Philipines.
The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) – the Advanced Science and Technology Institute (ASTI) of the Republic of the Philippines undertakes scientific R&D and technology transfer in the advanced fields of ICT, computing, electronics and their applications.
The Argentinean Microwaves Observation Satellite 1B (SAOCOM 1B) was launched into orbit on August 30, 2020 from Space Launch Complex 40 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Florida, United States of America. Developed by the National Argentinean Space Commission (CONAE) in corporation with the Italian Space Agency (ASI), this new satellite joined SAOCOM 1A and four Italian COSMO-SkyMed to complete the Italian-Argentinean Satellite System for Emergency Management (SIASGE).

Sea ice covers about 7% of the Earth's surface and it has a significant influence on the local, regional and global climate environment and local communities and ecosystems. Sea ice acts like a blanket on the ocean surface, reducing the absorbed solar energy, evaporation and heat exchange between the ocean and atmosphere. When sea ice forms, most of the salt is pushed into the ocean water below the ice, as a result of higher ice concentration the water is denser and sinks to the bottom as well as the local ecosystems.
