The Eddy Experiment: accurate GNSS-R ocean altimetry from low altitude aircraft

open access: yes, 2004
During the Eddy Experiment, two synchronous GPS receivers were flown at 1 km altitude to collect L1 signals and their reflections from the sea surface for assessment of altimetric precision and accuracy.

Generative Supervised Classification Using Dirichlet Process Priors. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Choosing the appropriate parameter prior distributions associated to a given Bayesian model is a challenging problem. Conjugate priors can be selected for simplicity motivations.

Systematic Evaluation and Correction of Extreme Water Level in Global Storm Surge Simulation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.
Abstract Extreme sea levels resulting from storm surges are a major contributor to coastal flood risk and are often assessed using outputs from global storm surge models. However, these models exhibit systematic errors, particularly in data‐sparse regions. Here, we present a novel framework to improve simulated extreme water levels.

North Pacific Model Biases Influence Kuroshio Extension Atmospheric Circulation Patterns

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract The Kuroshio Extension (KE) system significantly impacts decadal North Pacific climate variability by modulating downstream atmospheric circulation patterns. Using satellite‐derived and reanalysis products, and simulations from the High Resolution Model Intercomparison Project within the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6, we ...

Recent Observations of Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica Are Consistent With High Rates of Loss in Next 50 Years

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Thwaites Glacier has experienced accelerating mass loss, with rates increasing over fivefold since the 1990s. We apply transient calibration to two independent ice‐sheet models (STREAMICE and ISSM) using time‐varying velocity and surface elevation data from 2004 to 2017 to project future mass loss through 2067.

Contribution of laser altimetry images to the geomorphology of the Late Holocene inland drift sands of the European Sand Belt [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The paper explores the possibilities of applying the analysis of laser altimetry images to Dutch drift sands. All along the European Sand Belt, which stretches from Great Britain to the Ural Mountains, Late Glacial cover sands, river dunes and other ice ...

Disentangling Wind‐ and Buoyancy‐Driven Changes in Pacific Barotropic Circulation and Regional Sea Level During 1960–2014

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract Relative roles of wind stress and buoyancy forcing in shaping Pacific circulation and sea level remain unclear. Using large‐ensemble simulations from Community Earth System Model version 2, we disentangle the contributions of wind and buoyancy fluxes during 1960–2014.

An observational philosophy for GEOS-C satellite altimetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 1972
The parameters necessary for obtaining a 10 cm accuracy for GEOS-C satellite altimetry are outlined. These data include oceanographic parameters, instrument calibration, pulse propagation, sea surface effects, and optimum ...

Enduring Lagrangian coherence of a Loop Current ring assessed using independent observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Ocean flows are routinely inferred from low-resolution satellite altimetry measurements of sea surface height assuming a geostrophic balance. Recent nonlinear dynamical systems techniques have revealed that surface currents derived from altimetry can ...

Monitoring of the Transient Sea Level Variations Associated With Hurricane‐Induced Storm Surges by GNSS‐IR

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.
Abstract As global climate change intensifies, hurricane‐induced storm surges are becoming more frequent and severe. While Global Navigation Satellite System‐Interferometric Reflectometry (GNSS‐IR) is widely used to monitor sea level variations, its capability to detect rapid and extreme events remains limited.
