Jets and Topography: Jet Transitions and the Impact on Transport in the Antarctic Circumpolar Current [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The Southern Ocean’s Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) naturally lends itself to interpretations using a zonally averaged framework. Yet, navigation around steep and complicated bathymetric obstacles suggests that local dynamics may be far removed from

Sea level change along the Black Sea coast from satellite altimetry, tide gauge and GPS observations

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2016
Sea level change affects human living conditions, particularly ocean coasts. However, sea level change is still unclear along the Black Sea coast due to lack of in-situ measurements and low resolution satellite data. In this paper, sea level change along

Satellite altimetry and ocean dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesComptes Rendus. Géoscience, 2006
This paper provides a summary of recent results derived from satellite altimetry. It is focused on altimetry and ocean dynamics with synergistic use of other remote sensing techniques, in-situ data and integration aspects through data assimilation. Topics include mean ocean circulation and geoid issues, tropical dynamics and large-scale sea level and ...

Sea Surface Height Estimation by Ground-Based BDS GEO Satellite Reflectometry

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2020
Chinese BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS) as a mixed constellation consists of not only medium earth orbit (MEO) satellites but also inclined geosynchronous orbit and geostationary earth orbit (GEO) satellites, of which the GEO satellites remain ...

Sea level accelerations at globally distributed tide gauge stations during the satellite altimetry era

open access: yesJournal of Geodetic Science, 2018
This observational study reports that several globally distributed tide gauge stations exhibit a propensity of statistically significant sea level accelerations during the satellite altimetry era.

A new approach to estimate ice dynamic rates using satellite observations in East Antarctica [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2017
Mass balance changes of the Antarctic ice sheet are of significant interest due to its sensitivity to climatic changes and its contribution to changes in global sea level. While regional climate models successfully estimate mass input due to snowfall,

Influence of Atmospheric Scattering on the Accuracy of Laser Altimetry of the GF-7 Satellite and Corrections

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Satellite laser altimetry can obtain sub-meter or even centimeter-scale surface elevation data over large areas, but it is inevitably affected by scattering caused by clouds, aerosols, and other atmospheric particles.

A first approach towards dual-hemisphere sea ice reference measurements from multiple data sources repurposed for evaluation and product intercomparison of satellite altimetry [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data
Sea ice altimetry currently remains the primary method for estimating sea ice thickness from space, however, time series of such satellite-derived estimates are of limited use without having been quality-controlled against reference measurements.

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Sea state bias in altimeter sea level estimates determined by combining wave model and satellite data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This study documents a method for increasing the precision of satellite-derived sea level measurements. Results are achieved using an enhanced three-dimensional (3-D) sea state bias (SSB) correction model derived from both Jason-1 altimeter ocean ...
