Copernicus Sentinel-2 is a wide-swath, high-resolution, multi-spectral imaging mission, also supporting water cover monitoring. The acquired data, mission coverage and high revisit frequency are particularly effective for Satellite Derived Bathymetry (SDB) application. This webinar will focus on SDB using the ratio transform algorithm developed by Stumpf et al. (2003), with the use of Sentinel-2 imagery …

A recent paper investigates the role of Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) and Sea Surface Temperature (SST), together with Sea Level Anomaly and Argo profiles in Tropical Instability Waves (TIWs) in the equatorial Atlantic Ocean during the period 2010–2018. Tropical Instability Waves (TIWs) are a phenomenon in which the interface between areas of warm and cold …
A seminal article on the progress of satellite altimetry and its future has been published on-line in Advances in Space Research on 23 March 2021. It is authored by the International Altimetry Team, which is composed of more than 360 co-authors. In 2018, in Ponta Delgada, the Azores, Portugal, celebrations took place for 25 years …
A novel product suite on sea level across the Baltic Sea region, derived from altimetry measurements through the Baltic SEAL Regional Initiative project, is now available to download. A duo of products containing Sea Surface Height (SSH) information are provided, accompanied by a number of ancillary products. The first main product consists of along-track datasets …
