Aviso regional sea surface height products

For the time being, range of regional sea surface height products concern following areas: North_East Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, Mediterranean Sea and Black Sea.
In Gulf of Mexico and North East Atlantic, regional products are along-track and "extended", i.e delivered with high frequency signal correction, ocean tide correction and inverse barometer correction especially for regional applications.

North-East Atlantic

Product type

 

Ssalto/Duacs extended Sea level anomalies

Contents: along-track sea surface heights computed with respect to a seven-year mean, delivered with high frequency, ocean tide and inverse barometer corrections
Use: regional studies; ocean variability (mesoscale circulation, seasonal variation...), including operational oceanography (real time products)
