Eddy Dynamics From Satellite Altimetry [PDF]
Oceanography, 2010 Most of the kinetic energy of ocean circulation is contained in ubiquitous mesoscale eddies. Their prominent signatures in sea surface height have rendered satellite altimetry highly effective in observing global ocean eddies. Our knowledge of ocean eddy dynamics has grown by leaps and bounds since the advent of satellite altimetry in the early 1980s ...

Satellite radar altimetry for monitoring small rivers and lakes in Indonesia [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2015 Remote sensing and satellite geodetic observations are capable of hydrologic monitoring of freshwater resources. Although satellite radar altimetry has been used in monitoring water level or discharge, its use is often limited to monitoring large rivers (

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
