Assessment of Aquarius Sea Surface Salinity [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2018 Aquarius was the first NASA satellite to observe the sea surface salinity (SSS) over the global ocean. The mission successfully collected data from 25 August 2011 to 7 June 2015. The Aquarius project released its final version (Version-5) of the SSS data

Overview of the SMOS Sea Surface Salinity Prototype Processor [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2008 25 pages, 17 figures, 7 tables, 2 appendices The L-band interferometric radiometer onboard the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity mission will measure polarized brightness temperatures (Tb). The measurements are affected by strong radiometric noise. However, during a satellite overpass, numerous measurements are acquired at various incidence angles at ...

Precipitation Estimates from SMOS Sea‐Surface Salinity [PDF]
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2017 Two L‐Band (1.4 GHz) microwave radiometer missions, Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) and Soil Moisture Active and Passive (SMAP) currently provide sea‐surface salinity (SSS) measurements. At this frequency, salinity is measured in the first centimetre below the sea surface, which makes it very sensitive to the presence of fresh water lenses ...

Regime Changes in Global Sea Surface Salinity Trend [PDF]
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2015 Recent studies have shown significant sea surface salinity (SSS) changes at scales ranging from regional to global. In this study, we estimate global salinity means and trends using historical (1950–2014) SSS data from the UK Met Office Hadley Centre objectively analyzed monthly fields and recent data from the SMOS satellite (2010–2014).
