Integrating wide-swath altimetry data into Level-4 multi-mission maps [PDF]
Ocean ScienceReal-time observation of ocean surface topography is essential for various oceanographic applications. Historically, these observations have mainly relied on satellite nadir altimetry data, which were limited to observation scales greater than ...

Evaluation of sub-monthly oceanographic signal in GRACE “daily” swath series using altimetry [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2020 Bottom pressure estimates from three different Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) series (an experimental Center for Space Research (CSR) swath series, ITSG2016, and ITSG2018) and two global ocean models (OMCT and MPIOM) are compared to ...

Contribution of a constellation of two wide-swath altimetry missions to global ocean analysis and forecasting [PDF]
Ocean Science, 2022 Swath altimetry is likely to revolutionize our ability to monitor and forecast ocean dynamics. To meet the requirements of the EU Copernicus Marine Service, a constellation of two wide-swath altimeters is envisioned for the long-term (post-2030 ...

Wide-swath satellite altimetry unveils global submesoscale ocean dynamics. [PDF]
NatureAbstract Ocean submesoscale (1–100 km) processes and their substantial impact on Earth’s climate system have been increasingly emphasized in recent decades by high-resolution numerical models and regional observations 1–11 .
