Maps of Sea Level Anomaly

  • TOPEX/POSEIDON

    These are SLA MAPS (in cm) relative to a 4-year mean derived from the final processing of  T/P data.
    Maps are obtained using an improved optimal interpolation method (Hernandez et al., 1995 ; Le Traon et al., 1998) of the altimetric SLA. There is one map (40-6°W/20-46°N) every 10 days from October 1992 to March 1998. Contour interval is 4 cm.

  • TOPEX/POSEIDON AND ERS-1/2 Warning: no maps from cycle 48 to 92

    Whenever ERS-1 or ERS-2 35-day-repeat orbit data are available, maps combining ERS and T/P SLA are produced. New maps are obtained for the T/P cycles 2-47 and 93-202 (October 92 to December 93, and March 95 to March 1998). The ERS-1/2 data are pre-processed in order to be combined with T/P data (Le Traon and Ogor, 1998).
