Current state of art of satellite altimetry [PDF]
Geodesy and Cartography, 2017 One of the fundamental problems of modern geodesy is precise defi nition of the gravitational fi eld and its changes in time. This is essential in positioning and navigation, geophysics, geodynamics, oceanography and other sciences related to the climate

High-resolution airborne observations of sea-ice pressure ridge sail height
Annals of Glaciology, 2018 Pressure ridges impact the mass, energy and momentum budgets of the sea-ice cover and present an obstacle to transportation through ice-infested waters. Quantifying ridge characteristics is important for understanding total sea-ice mass and for improving

Integration of HF Radar Observations for an Enhanced Coastal Mean Dynamic Topography
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Satellite altimeters provide continuous information of the sea level variability and mesoscale processes for the global ocean. For estimating the sea level above the geoid and monitoring the full ocean dynamics from altimeters measurements, a key ...

Sea state and rain: a second take on dual-frequency altimetry [PDF]
, 2004 TOPEX and Jason were the first two dual-frequency altimeters in space, with both operating at Ku- and C-band. Each thus gives two measurements of the normalized backscatter, sigma0, (from which wind speed is calculated) and two estimates of wave height ...
