In 2018 we celebrated 25 years of development of radar altimetry, and the progress
achieved by this methodology in the fields of global and coastal oceanography, hydrology …

Human activities have altered the state of the ocean, leading to warming, acidification and
deoxygenation. These changes impact ocean biogeochemistry and influence ecosystem …

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 …

Sea-surface temperature (SST) was one of the first ocean variables to be studied from earth
observation satellites. Pioneering images from infrared scanning radiometers revealed the …

Autonomous platforms already make observations over a wide range of temporal and spatial
scales, measuring salinity, temperature, nitrate, pressure, oxygen, biomass, and many other …

The OceanGliders program started in 2016 to support active coordination and enhancement
of global glider activity. OceanGliders contributes to the international efforts of the Global …

Although observational efforts have been made to detect submesoscale currents
(submesoscales) in regions with deep mixed layers and/or strong mesoscale kinetic energy …

Coastal zones are highly dynamical systems affected by a variety of natural and
anthropogenic forcing factors that include sea level rise, extreme events, local oceanic and …

Although both geostrophic‐balanced mesoscale eddies and unbalanced small‐scale
processes have been well studied in the northeastern South China Sea (NE‐SCS), less …

A long-standing challenge in oceanography is the observing, modeling, and prediction of
vertical transport, which links the sunlit and atmospherically mediated surface boundary …
