Effects of Interferometric Radar Altimeter Errors on Marine Gravity Field Inversion
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 ...

Ocean 2D eddy energy fluxes from small mesoscale processes with SWOT [PDF]
We investigate ocean dynamics at different scales in the Agulhas Current system, a region of important interocean exchange of heat and energy. While ocean observations and some of the most advanced climate models capture the larger mesoscale dynamics ...
