Measuring Storm Surge with an Airborne Wide-Swath Radar Altimeter
Abstract Over the years, hurricane track forecasts and storm surge models, as well the digital terrain and bathymetry data they depend on, have improved significantly. Strides have also been made in the knowledge of the detailed variation of the surface wind field driving the surge.

Submesoscale oceanic eddy detection in SAR images using context and edge association network
Oceanic eddies have a non-negligible impact on ocean energy transfer, nutrient distribution, and biological migration in global oceans. The fine detection of oceanic eddies is significant for the development of marine science.

Contribution of a Wide-Swath Altimeter in a Shelf Seas Assimilation System: Impact of the Satellite Roll Errors [PDF]
Abstract The authors investigate the potential qualitative improvement brought by wide-swath, interferometry-based ocean altimetry measurements with respect to classical nadir altimeters in a coastal/shelf data assimilation system. In addition, particular attention is paid to roll errors, which could significantly reduce the expected ...

On the Approximation of Precision Matrices for Wide-Swath Altimetry
New observations of ocean surface topography obtained by wide-swath satellite interferometry require new capabilities to process spatially correlated errors in order to assimilate these data into numerical models.

Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission provides unprecedented high‐resolution simultaneous observations of both sea surface height anomalies and sea surface roughness. Specifically, it enables more precise analysis of strong internal waves. Off the Amazon Shelf, in the Indonesian Seas, and near the Mascarene Ridge, internal wave

Advancing Near‐Real‐Time Flood Inundation Mapping in Australia
Abstract Floods are the second‐most deadly natural hazard in Australia, following heatwaves. Monitoring flood extent and depth in near real‐time (NRT) is crucial to minimize loss of life and socio‐economic impacts. This study leverages advanced computing, data management systems, and high‐quality data, including river gauge data APIs and Australian ...
