Lake Morphometry Influences the Accuracy of SWOT Estimates of Water Level

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Lake water surface elevation (WSE) data in Sweden are needed to understand water supply and ecosystem services provision. SWOT can complement WSE in situ measurements, but the influence of lake shape on its accuracy remains unclear. We explore the performance of the SWOT pixel‐cloud and this influence across 62 lakes from August 2023 to ...

Detection of intraseasonal oscillations in the Bay of Bengal using altimetry

open access: yesAtmospheric Science Letters, 2019
Air–sea and mixed layer dynamics in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) respond strongly to Intraseasonal Oscillations (ISOs) that primarily operate on three observed time scales: the 30–90 day Madden‐Julian Oscillation, the 10–20 day quasi‐biweekly oscillation, and

Propagating Internal‐Tide‐Induced Wave Stresses Resolve Discrepancies in Ocean Surface Tide Energetics

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 13, 16 July 2026.
Abstract Ocean tides are a major energy reservoir in Earth's climate system, yet global tide models systematically fail to reproduce observed tidal energetics. This limitation arises because existing models do not adequately represent how tide‐generated internal waves in the deep ocean regulate ocean tide energy, accounting only for their initial ...

Altimetry from Planetary Radar Sounders [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Having information on the global shape of a planet as well as having precise topography information is a prerequisite for many advanced scientific studies as well as for future robotic exploration. To date there are numerous methods to obtain topographic

Satellite altimetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Since altimetry data are not really old enough to use the term data archaeology, Mr. Cheney referred to the stewardship of these data. He noted that it is very important to document the basis for an altimetry data set as the algorithms and corrections ...
