Satellite radar altimetry provides a unique sea level data set that extends over more than 25
years back in time and that has an almost global coverage. However, when approaching the …

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 …

The temporal behaviour of precipitable water vapour (PWV) retrieved from GPS delay data is
analysed in a number of case studies of intense precipitation in the Lisbon area, in the …

Satellite radar altimetry is nowadays a powerful and attractive Earth Observation technique
of major importance in several applications such as the study of mean sea level change (a …

The wet tropospheric correction (WTC) is still a significant error source in most altimetric
products. For studies such as sea level change, as those performed in the scope of the ESA …

Originally designed for applications over the ocean, satellite altimetry has been proven to be
a useful tool for hydrologic studies. Altimeter products, mainly conceived for oceanographic …

Due to its large space-time variability, the wet tropospheric correction (WTC) is still
considered a significant error source in satellite altimetry. This paper presents the GNSS …

The annual cycle is a major contribution to the nontidal variability in sea level. Its
characteristics can vary substantially even at a regional scale, particularly in an area of high …

Nowadays, in most altimetry sea level products, data are only retrieved up to 5–10 km from
the coasts. The need to extend the satellite sea level record closest to land has led to …

In precipitable water vapor (PWV) retrieval, results with high spatial coverage but low
temporal resolution can be achieved through satellite-borne sensors, such as the Advanced …
