The future international Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) Mission, planned for
launch in 2021, will make high-resolution 2D observations of sea-surface height using SAR …

The Copernicus Marine Environment Monitoring Service (CMEMS) provides regular and
systematic reference information on the physical and biogeochemical ocean and sea-ice …

The ECMWF OCEAN5 system is a global ocean and sea-ice ensemble of reanalysis and
real-time analysis. This paper gives a full description of the OCEAN5 system, with the focus …

For more than 20 years, the multi-satellite Data Unification and Altimeter Combination
System (DUACS) has been providing near-real-time (NRT) and delayed-time (DT) altimetry …

The new DUACS DT2014 reprocessed products have been available since April 2014.
Numerous innovative changes have been introduced at each step of an extensively revised …

The Data Unification and Altimeter Combination System (DUACS) produces sea level global
and regional maps that serve oceanographic applications, climate forecasting centers, and …

Since the beginning of the 1990s, sea level is routinely measured using high-precision
satellite altimetry. Over the past ∼∼ 25 years, several groups worldwide involved in …

Sea level is one of the 50 Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) listed by the Global Climate
Observing System (GCOS) in climate change monitoring. In the past two decades, sea level …

Conventional altimetry measures a one-dimensional profile of sea surface height (SSH)
along the satellite track. Two-dimensional SSH can be reconstructed using map** …

A near-global chart of surface elevations associated with the stationary M 2 internal tide is
empirically constructed from multimission satellite altimeter data. An advantage of a strictly …
