A Strictly Geostrophic Product of Sea‐Surface Velocities From the SWOT Fast‐Sampling Phase
Abstract While geostrophy remains the simplest and most practical balance to extract velocity information from sea‐surface height anomaly (SSHa), confusions remain within the oceanographic community to what extent this balance can be applied to altimetric observations with the launch of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite. Given the

Abstract Isolating glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) signals from Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) observations of vertical land motion (VLM) in Greenland requires removal of elastic solid Earth response to contemporary ice mass change. This elastic correction depends on ice‐surface elevation changes derived from satellite altimetry and firn ...

Abstract The NASA/CNES Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) swath‐mapping radar altimetry satellite mission, launched in December 2022, provides repeat‐track coverage to about ±78.2° latitude every 21 days, sampling many of Antarctica's most dynamic ice shelves that play key roles in constraining mass loss from the grounded ice sheet ...

Abstract Intertidal zones of the Ganges‐Brahmaputra (GB) delta are among the most active coastal environments worldwide, and quantifying their morphological evolution remains challenging due to rapid change and scarce in situ observations. This study presents a satellite‐based direct quantification of intertidal sediment volume change in the Meghna ...

Assessing Dynamical Contributions to SWOT Sea Surface Height in an Internal Tide Hotspot
Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission has revealed high‐frequency sea surface height anomaly (SSHA) variability associated with internal gravity waves, yet comparison with in situ observations remains limited. Here, we analyze a mooring array beneath the swaths of SWOT Cal/Val south of New Caledonia, an internal tide (IT ...

Two Decades of Ross and Weddell Gyre Variability From Observations
Abstract The Weddell and Ross Gyres influence climate‐relevant processes including poleward heat transport, nutrient upwelling and carbon sequestration. However, long‐term tracking of changes to their circulation is limited by the sparsity of observations characteristic of the region.

The Observed Circumpolar Decline of Antarctic Bottom Water Volume
Abstract Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) formation is a key component of the global overturning circulation, ventilating the abyssal ocean and sequestering heat and carbon. Using a new reconstruction from the SatGEM‐2 monthly‐varying gravest empirical mode climatology, a continuous, observation‐driven circumpolar record of AABW variability is presented ...
