20.03.2024 Swot close to the coasts

Left, Swot KaRIn reflected radar power (sigma0) and, right, in color, the KaRIn 250-m sea level anomalies with derived geostrophic currents overlaid (black lines with arrows). The day of the measurement is an exceptional one, with few waves and little wind. Under these conditions, Swot captures very small-scale roughness changes, visible in sigma0 (white filaments). Those are the tracers of ocean turbulence generated by the movements of larger-scale ocean eddies. The sea level anomalies map mostly show those eddies. (Credit Cnes/CLS/JPL)

One of Swot's most eagerly awaited results over the oceans lies at their boundaries: close to the coast. Swot observes over its entire swath, thus covering most of coastal areas. Moreover, with the 250-m resolution of the data...

01.03.2024 March 2024: Sea ice observed by Swot

In color, topography measured by KaRIn (250m resolution, blue: lower heights, red: higher heights), overlaid on data from Sentinel-1A's classical SAR imager (one day difference between the two measurements) (Credit Cnes/CLS/JPL)

Swot observes ice leads and the SSH in them, thus enabling to retrieve sea ice freeboard
