Coverage: Global
Time period: 01/01/2013 - 20/03/2013 (sub cycles 36-38)
Cryosat-2 data products used: ESA FDM and LRM L1B data
Description:
Data from the TU Delft RADS data-base are used. The following
processing steps are applied:
- Daily download FDM and LRM L1B data from ESA
- Retrack waveforms to compute wave height,
backscatter, range (MLE3-type retracker)
- Merge data files (few to tens of minutes normally)
into passes and sub-cycles of 29 days (à la GDR) in RADS
- Use additional geophysical corrections from L1B
- Overwrite and add common RADS geophysical corrections
- SSB (in-house calculation)
- Latest MSS models (DTU10, CNES-CLS11), geoid
- Tides (FES2004, GOT4.8)
- ECMWF and NCEP meteo, GPS and NIC09 iono, MOG2D IB
- Off-line orbits from Delft, ESOC, CNES
- Compute wind speed from backscatter (Abdalla)
- Compute sea level anomalies from orbit - range -
corrections
