Abstract For over 60 years, an approximation involving spherical geopotentials has underlain the representation of gravity in global numerical models of Earth's atmosphere and oceans. This article explores how departures from sphericity can be allowed by assuming spheroidal geopotentials instead. A route to more accurate model formulation is indicated,

Braided Rivers From SWOT: Water Surface Dynamics Over the Multi‐Channel Brahmaputra River
Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite can simultaneously observe river elevation, width, and slope with high spatio‐temporal coverage and resolution (Fu et al., 2024, https://doi.org/10.1029/2023gl107652). The River Single‐Pass (RiverSP) product from SWOT provides geolocated river surface water dynamics with global coverage ...

Deriving Intertidal Topography From SWOT Data and Sentinel‐2 Data
Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, initially designed to observe oceans and inland waters, proves valuable for mapping intertidal flat topography. This study presents a fusion method that integrates freely available SWOT interferometric altimetry data with Sentinel‐2 imagery.

Slope Correction for Ocean SAR Altimetry
Abstract Since the 2010 launch of Cryosat‐2, a new generation of altimeters, referred to as SAR altimetry, has emerged and partially replaced the previous conventional altimeters known as Low Resolution Mode (LRM) altimetry. A surface slope correction has been previously developed for LRM altimetry.

Mutual evaluation of global gravity models (EGM2008 and GOCE) and terrestrial data in Amazon Basin, Brazil [PDF]
The gravity observations of the satellite GOCE have a global homogeneous coverage and precision. This data set constitutes an independent new tool to control the quality of terrestrial gravity data. Terrestrial data reach higher resolution and precision,

AVALIAÇÃO DA UTILIZAÇÃO DOS MODELOS GEOPOTENCIAIS EGM2008 E SGG-UGM-2 PARA A CARACTERIZAÇÃO GRAVIMÉTRICA DA ELEVAÇÃO DO RIO GRANDE [PDF]
A gravimetria é o ramo da Geofísica dedicado ao estudo do campo da gravidade terrestre, cuja modelagem matemática é baseada normalmente nas medições da componente vertical da aceleração da gravidade.
