Improving Electromagnetic Bias Estimates
<p>The electromagnetic (EM) bias is the largest source of error in the TOPEX/Poseidon and Jason-1 satellite sea surface height (SSH) estimates. Due to incomplete understanding of the physical processes which cause the bias, current operational models are based on empirical relationships between the …

Studies to Improve Estimation of the Electromagnetic Bias in Radar Altimetry
… the mean sea level (MSL). In order to do so, the electromagnetic (EM) bias must be estimated more accurately because it is the largest contributing error. This thesis presents two different studies which add to the knowledge and improve estimation of the EM bias, and thus assists Jason-1 in …

Evaluation of GEOSAT data and application to variability of the Northeast Pacific Ocean
… repeat's groundtrack. Detrending of sea surface bias and tilt on each repeat reduced orbit and other long wavelength errors in the difference profiles. The corrections provided on the GEOSAT GDR were examined for their effects on the difference profiles of three test arcs. It was found that only …
