Global River Bathymetry from Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) and other Satellites

Une connaissance fiable du débit et de la géométrie des rivières est essentielle pour la prévision des crues, la modélisation hydrologique et la planification de l'adaptation au changement climatique. Pourtant, une grande partie du réseau fluvial mondial reste non jaugée, en particulier dans les régions à faibles ressources, ce qui limite notre ...

Swath Mapping Altimetry over Sea Ice: First Results from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) Mission

SWOT provides the first opportunity to study the polar oceans with swath mapping altimetry from space. Using case studies in the Beaufort Sea, we demonstrate the utility of swath altimetry for mapping sea ice in 3D. SWOT’s combined height and backscatter observations are useful for distinguishing leads from ice floes.

Exploring Estuarine Sea Level Fluctuations and Dynamics Using the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) Mission: Resolving Estuaries

Serving as economic hubs with large population densities, coastal environments are critical to society. They are also some of the most dynamic domains within the Earth system at the nexus of complex and interconnected ocean-land processes that have strong impacts on both societal function and ecosystem responses.

Contribution du satellite SWOT (Surface Water Ocean Topography) pour l'analyse et la prévision océanique

La mission SWOT (Surface Water Ocean Topography) qui sera lancée en 2022 doit permettre grâce à un nouveau système d’altimétrie à large fauchée d’observer beaucoup plus finement la topographie des océans (SSH). Cette capacité nouvelle d'observation pose d'importantes questions pour les communautés scientifique et océanographie opérationnelle : quelles ...

Hydrological dynamics of the floodplains in the Cuvette Centrale (Congo River Basin) using the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission

Climate change is exerting significant pressure on all components of the Earth system, with surface water reservoirs—such as lakes, rivers, wetlands, and floodplains—being particularly affected. Within this hydrological compartment, wetlands, including floodplains, play a critical role in modulating hydrological processes.
