Blending 2D topography images from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission into the altimeter constellation with the Level-3 multi-mission Data Unification and Altimeter Combination System (DUACS) [PDF]
The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission delivers unprecedented swath-altimetry products. Despite SWOT's 2D coverage and precision, its Level-2 ocean products suffer from the same limitations as their counterparts from nadir altimetry ...

Regional Assessments of Surface Ice Elevations from Swath-Processed CryoSat-2 SARIn Data
The Arctic responds rapidly to climate change, and the melting of land ice is a major contributor to the observed present-day sea-level rise. The coastal regions of these ice-covered areas are showing the most dramatic changes in the form of widespread ...

Contribution of a constellation of two wide-swath altimetry missions to global ocean analysis and forecasting [PDF]
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 ...

Evaluation of sub-monthly oceanographic signal in GRACE “daily” swath series using altimetry [PDF]
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 ...

END-TO-END PHYSICS-INFORMED REPRESENTATION LEARNING FOR SATELLITE OCEAN REMOTE SENSING DATA: APPLICATIONS TO SATELLITE ALTIMETRY AND SEA SURFACE CURRENTS [PDF]
This paper addresses physics-informed deep learning schemes for satellite ocean remote sensing data. Such observation datasets are characterized by the irregular space-time sampling of the ocean surface due to sensors’ characteristics and satellite ...

Joint inversion estimate of regional glacial isostatic adjustment in Antarctica considering a lateral varying Earth structure (ESA STSE Project REGINA) [PDF]
A major uncertainty in determining the mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet from measurements of satellite gravimetry, and to a lesser extent satellite altimetry, is the poorly known correction for the ongoing deformation of the solid Earth caused by

Wide-Swath Ocean Altimetry Using Multisatellite Single-Pass Interferometry
Estimating sea surface height using cross-track interferometry (XTI) requires high sensitivity because the ocean surface signal is in the order of 10 cm.

Facilitating Inversion of the Error Covariance Models for the Wide-Swath Altimeters
Wide-swath satellite altimeter observations are contaminated by errors caused by the uncertainties in the geometry and orientation of the on-board interferometer.

Can satellite altimetry observe coastally trapped waves on sub-monthly timescales? [PDF]
Coastally trapped waves (CTWs) are a major cause of sub-seasonal coastal sea level variability. While they have mostly been studied using numerical models, observational evidence is limited due to the sparse spatial coverage of the tide gauge network and

The Nippon Foundation—GEBCO Seabed 2030 Project: The Quest to See the World’s Oceans Completely Mapped by 2030 [PDF]
Despite many of years of mapping effort, only a small fraction of the world ocean’s seafloor has been sampled for depth, greatly limiting our ability to explore and understand critical ocean and seafloor processes.
