Effects of Interferometric Radar Altimeter Errors on Marine Gravity Field Inversion [PDF]
Sensors, 2020 The traditional altimetry satellite, which is based on pulse-limited radar altimeter, only measures ocean surface heights along tracks; hence, leads to poorer accuracy in the east component of the vertical deflections compared to the north component ...

Estimating River Discharge With Swath Altimetry: A Proof of Concept Using AirSWOT Observations
Geophysical Research Letters, 2019 The forthcoming Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission will provide global measurements of the free surface of large rivers, providing new opportunities for remote sensing‐derived estimates of river discharge in gaged and ungaged ...

Combining surface drifters and high resolution global simulations enables the mapping of internal tide surface energy [PDF]
Scientific ReportsBy dissipating energy and generating mixing, internal tides (ITs) are important for the climatological evolution of the ocean. Our understanding of this class of ocean variability is however hindered by the rarity of observations capable of capturing ITs

Scale-Aware Neural Calibration for Wide Swath Altimetry Observations [PDF]
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2023 Sea surface height (SSH) is a key geophysical parameter for monitoring and studying mesoscale surface ocean dynamics. For several decades, the mapping of SSH products at regional and global scales has relied on nadir satellite altimeters, which provide 1-
