We also encourage manuscripts resulting from the application of new altimetric technology (SAR, SARin, and Ka band) and improvements expected from missions to be launched in the near future (i.
Manuscripts are related to any aspect of radar Altimetry technique or geophysical applications.
This book aims to present reviews and recent advances of general interest in the use of radar Altimetry in Earth sciences.
Altimetry has also demonstrated a strong potential for geophysical, cryospheric, and hydrological research and is now commonly used for the monitoring of Arctic and Antarctic ice sheet topography and of terrestrial surface water levels.
With more than 25 years of observations, it is also becoming vital to climate research, providing accurate measurements of sea level variations from regional to global scales. g., circulation surface geostrophic currents, eddy structures, wave heights, and the propagation of oceanic Kelvin and Rossby waves).
Satellite Altimetry has provided extremely valuable information on ocean science (e.
It was initially designed for measuring the ocean\'s topography, with reference to an ellipsoid, and for the determination of the marine geoid.
