New Mean Dynamic Topography MDT_CNES-CLS09

A new version of the Combined Mean Dynamic Topography called MDT_CNES-CLS-09 is available on the Aviso website. The MDT is the mean sea surface above geoid, corrected from geophysical effects. It has been produced in the frame of the SLOOP project, funded by CNES/SALP, aiming at improving the quality of altimetric products in open ocean. The methodology and main improvements compared to the previous MDT Rio05 are detailed on the <link internal-link>MDT pages.
