Evaluating Water Levels From the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) Mission in a Hyper‐Tidal Coastal and Estuarine Environment

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 12, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract The launch of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite in December 2022 started a new era of swath altimetry, introducing an unprecedented global data set of high‐resolution two‐dimensional water level imagery. During its initial calibration and validation phase (cal/val), SWOT conducted daily observations for 3 months providing

Exploration of tectonic structures with GOCE in Africa and across-continents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The gravity anomaly field over the whole Earth obtained by the GOCE satellite is a revolutionary tool to reveal geologic information on a continental scale for the large areas where conventional gravity measurements have yet to be made.

Global Assessment of Lake Surface Morphology and Its Impact on Water Volume Estimation

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Lake surface morphology, an essential yet underexplored feature of hydrological systems, remains poorly understood, including its effects on water volume estimation. This study investigates north‐south surface profiles of 147 lakes worldwide using ICESat‐2 altimetry data (2018–2024).
