Investigation of Geostrophic and Ekman Surface Current Using Satellite Altimetry Observations and Surface Wind in Persian Gulf and Oman Sea
The rise of satellite altimetry is a revolution in the ocean sciences. Due to its global coverage and its high resolution, altimetry classically outperforms in situ water level measurement. Ekman and geostrophic currents are large parts of the ocean’s current, playing a vital role in global climate variations. According to the classic oceanography, Ekman and geostrophic currents can be calculat...
متن کاملSatellite Microwave Radar Observations of Climate-related Sea-ice Anomalies
Since 1991 a number of international satellites have collected microwave radar image data over Arctic and Antarctic sea ice. The recent successful launch of the ADEOS I satellite, with the NASA NSCAT instrument, also enables additional weather-independent global sea-ice radar data to be acquired and archived in the US. With its pair of 500 km-wide parallel swathes, this radar scatterometer is c...
متن کاملNear-coastal satellite altimetry: Sea surface height variability in the North Sea – Baltic Sea area
The radiometer wet tropospheric correction is a limiting factor of the application of near-coastal altimetry observations in the North Sea – Baltic Sea area. Using an ECMWF model based correction instead, we increase the return rate from 70% to 95%, with observations as close as 10 km from the coast. The altimetry and 39 coastal tide gauges are referenced to the same state of the art regional g...
متن کاملa suggestion on determining field gravity in sea through satellite altimetry observations, case study; field gravity in oman sea
measuring field gravity in sea due to the accelerations introduced via waves and movements to the gravity measuring systems has a low accuracy since according to einstein's equalent principle, gravimeter isn't able to separate the gravity acceleration from another acceleration. ship borne gravimetery observations by means of like oscillations and accelerations of the ship motion, and ...
متن کاملHydrographic Preconditioning for Seasonal Sea Ice Anomalies in the Labrador Sea
This study investigates the hydrographic processes involved in setting the maximumwintertime sea ice (SI) extent in the Labrador Sea and Baffin Bay. The analysis is based on an ocean and sea ice state estimate covering the summer-to-summer 1996/97 annual cycle. The estimate is a synthesis of in situ and satellite hydrographic and ice data with a regional coupled 1/38 ocean–sea ice model. SI adv...
