Evolution of the Satellite Radar Altimeter
The radar altimeters flown on Geos-3 (1975), Seasat-l (1978), and Geosat-l (1985) have amply demonstrated the benefits of high-precision measurements of ocean-surface topography, both to geodesy and to oceanography. Two new altimetry missions are planned: the joint NASA/Centre National d'Etudes Spatiales TOPEx/Poseidon mission, to be launched in 1992, and the Navy's Special Purpose Inexpensive ...
متن کاملGeodetic Satellite Altimeter Study Final Engineering Report
This report presents the results of an eight-month study of signal processing techniques applicable to the Geodetic Satellite Altimeter program. The first subject treated is the analysis of random errors in the altitude measurement process which arise from signal fluctuations and receiver noise. Results are presented based on both theoretical analyses and computer simulation of the altimeter co...
متن کاملSatellite altimeter models for surface wind speed developed using ocean satellite crossovers
A large global compilation of altimeter and scatterometer satellite crossover samples is used to address altimeter wind speed inversion. The emphasis here is altimeter wind error due to sea state impacts. Numerous past studies have suggested that long-scale gravity waves, which do not adjust to wind as quickly as the short gravity-capillary waves, have a measurable influence on interpretation o...
متن کاملEstimation and Analysis of Precipitable Water Vapor Using GPS Data and Satellite Altimeter
Determination of water vapor in the atmosphere plays an important role in forecasting weather conditions and precipitation studies. For this reason, it is very important to study the tropospheric delay, especially the wet component, which is due to the presence of water vapor in the atmosphere. In this paper, the amount of water vapor was estimated by altimeter satellite radiometer and GPS data...
