The evolutionary trend in airborne and satellite radar altimeters [PDF]

, 1984
The manner in which airborne and satellite radar altimeters developed and where the trend is leading was investigated. The airborne altimeters have progressed from a broad beamed, narrow pulsed, nadir looking instrument, to a pulse compressed system that

Wide-swath altimetric satellite data assimilation with structured-error detrending

, 2019
2 For decades now, satellite altimetric observations have been successfully integrated in numerical 3 oceanographic models using data assimilation (DA). So far, sea surface height (SSH) data 4 were provided by one-dimensional nadir altimeters.

Expanding the Coastal Observation Frontier: SWOT Reveals the Spatial Footprint of Storm Surges

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract This study investigates the ability of the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite to capture storm‐surge‐driven high sea levels in coastal regions. For the first time, the evolving process of storm surges has been observed in 2D through SWOT satellite data, providing a unique spatial perspective on these local extreme events.

Coastal data accumulation potentials for operational systems using airplanes [PDF]

Potential users of SEASAT for remote sensing of coastal zone phenomena have established a need for resolutions beyond those attainable with SEASAT-A. One method of obtaining higher resolutions would be to fly the instruments aboard airplanes rather than ...

Data-Driven Calibration of SWOT’s Systematic Errors: First In-Flight Assessment

Remote Sensing
The SWOT satellite, carrying the KaRIN first wide-swath onboard altimeter, was launched in December 2022, and has now delivered more than a year of surface water elevation data over the ocean and inland lakes/rivers. These data are affected by systematic

Observations of sea ice and icebergs from satellite radar altimeters [PDF]

, 1984
Satellite radar altimeters can make useful contributions to the study of sea ice both by enhancing observations from other instruments and by providing a unique probe of ocean-ice interaction in the Marginal Ice Zone (MIZ).
