DOI: 10.1002/2016jc012568
Abstract: Ocean surface films can damp short capillary-gravity waves, reduce the surface mean square slope, and induce “sigma0 blooms” in satellite altimeter data. No study has ascertained the effect of such film on altimeter measurements due… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/17538947.2022.2158240
Abstract: ABSTRACT Harmonic analysis of satellite altimetry data based on a global regular grid is affected by the grid spatial tessellation and placement of the grids. With the increase of latitude, the traditional lat/lon grid deforms… read more here.
