A Simulation Experiment on In-Situ Observation of Short-Wavelength Scale Dynamic Processes and Potential Applications to Wide-Swath Interferometric Altimetry Validation

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
Short-wavelength (15–150 km) ocean phenomena are difficult to be observed by conventional altimeter due to the sampling method limited the resolution of the data.

Measuring Storm Surge with an Airborne Wide-Swath Radar Altimeter

open access: yesJournal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2009
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

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
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]

open access: yesJournal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology, 2008
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 ...

Approaches for Joint Retrieval of Wind Speed and Significant Wave Height and Further Improvement for Tiangong-2 Interferometric Imaging Radar Altimeter

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The interferometric imaging radar altimeter (InIRA) adopts a short baseline along with small incidence angles to acquire interferometric signals from the sea surface with high accuracy, thus the wide-swath sea surface height (SSH) and backscattering ...

Recommendations for the design of in situ sampling strategies to reconstruct fine-scale ocean currents in the context of SWOT satellite mission

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The new Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission aims to provide sea surface height (SSH) measurements in two dimensions along a wide-swath altimeter track with an expected effective resolution down to 15–30 km.

On the Approximation of Precision Matrices for Wide-Swath Altimetry

open access: yesRemote Sensing
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.

Novel Insights on Ocean Internal Waves: Quantitative Surface Manifestations and Upper Ocean Layer Displacements From the Surface Water Ocean Topography Mission (SWOT) Measurements

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.
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

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 2, February 2026.
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 ...
