  3. Another Ocean in the space - Jupiter’s Moon: Europa Galileo launched on October 18, 1989 Europa's surface is mostly water ice, and there is evidence that it may be covering an ocean of water or slushy ice beneath. Europa is thought to have twice as much water as does Earth. This moon intrigues astrobiologists because of its potential for having a 'habitable zone.' Life forms have been found thriving near subterranean volcanoes on Earth and in other extreme locations that may be analogues to what may exist on Europa. Europa, as seen by the Galileo spacecraft

Applying Remote Sensing to Study the Earth ACTIVE Altimetry – travel time of rays Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Scatterometer – backscatter PASSIVE Infrared (radiometer) SeaWIFS project photogrametry Active sensors emit energy in order to scan objects and areas where upon a sensor then detects and measures the radiation that is reflected or backscattered from the target. Passive collection, on the other hand, detects natural radiation that is emitted or reflected by the object or surrounding area being observed.

  15. ALTIMETRY Altimetry is a technique for measuring height. Satellite altimetry measures the time taken by a radar pulse to travel from the satellite antenna to the surface and back to the satellite receiver. Combined with precise satellite location data, altimetry measurements yield sea-surface heights(SSH). Improvements in measurement accuracy since the first satellite altimetry missions has enabled us to observe ocean variations at close quarters since 1992.

  16. MISSIONS Precise orbit determination and location missions have transformed the way we view Earth and its oceans. Highly accurate altimetry measurements from Topex/Poseidon and made possible by the Doris system give us the ability to observe sea surface height systematically. Past missions Geosat ERS-1 Topex/Poseidon GFO Current missions Cryosat Jason-2 Envisat Jason-1 ERS-2 Spot Future missions Cryosat Sentinel-3 Saral Jason-3 HY-2 Swot

  17. APPLICATIONSOF SATELLITE ALTIMETRIC OBSERVATIONS Geodesy & Geophysics Ocean Ice Climate Atmosphere Hydrology Coastal Biology A wealth of applications are possible using radar altimetry measurements, involving most geoscience fields and practiced by more than a thousand teams of users around the world. From the 'historical' applications (geodesy, general ocean circulation) to the developing ones (solid Earth and coastal applications, etc) and the ones that have become classic (ocean variability, ice topography, hydrology), altimetry has shown over and over that it is a very productive technique.

  18. APPLICATIONSOF SATELLITE ALTIMETRIC OBSERVATIONS Geodesy & Geophysics Ocean Ice Climate Atmosphere Hydrology Coastal Biology The reference mean sea level since January 1993 (left) is calculated after removing the annual and semi-annual signals. A 2-month filter is applied to the blue points, while a 6-month filter is used on the red curve. By applying the postglacial rebound correction (-0.3 mm/year), the  rise in mean sea level has thus been estimated as 3.26 mm/year (mean slope of the plotted data). Analysing the uncertainty of each altimetry correction made for calculating the GMSL, as well as a comparison with tide gauges gives an error in the GMSL slope of approximately 0.6 mm/year with a 90% confidence interval.

  19. Geodesy & Geophysics Geophysics is the study of the substances that make up the Earth and the physical processes occurring on, in and above it. Information derived from altimetry data can be used to study the Earth's shape and size, gravity anomalies (geodesy), seafloor relief (bathymetry), tectonic plate motion and rifts (geophysics), etc. Although often linked to plate tectonics, tsunamis are very different, transient phenomena. However, their impact on the sea surface can be seen by altimeters in some cases, thus helping the study of their propagation.

  25. Ocean The ocean is the surface studied by the majority of altimetry applications, and some missions are even optimised for it. Ultimate applications include oceanography itself, as well as the implications of ocean movements on climate (and vice-versa, the effects of climate change on the ocean). Large-scale circulation Ocean currents and eddies Operational oceanography Tides Mean Sea Level rise and the Greenhouse effect Mean Dynamic Topography (Credits CNES) Dynamic topography=SSH - geoid

  26. Large-scale ocean circulation, current Changes in the extent of the Gulf Stream and the Kuroshio, as seen by Topex/Poseidon. The currents were 'elongated' in 1993 and 1999, and contracted in 1996 and 2001. (Credits University of Washington)

  27. Ocean currents and eddies: mesoscale ocean applications Ocean currents are sometimes compared to 'sea highways', because ships follow their flow to gain speed. But this picture is not wholly accurate. In fact, ocean currents are more like secondary roads branching off into narrow country roads and lanes, winding their way around hills and natural obstacles. The main flow of these currents is often disturbed by eddies that form at their edge. So the ocean is really more like a vast, slowly swirling whirlpool bath than a swimming pool divided into perfectly straight lanes.

  32. El Nino mechanism Climate feedback between SST and winds If trade winds weaken, then Westward surface flow (SEC) weakens, allowing western Pacific warm waters to move eastward cold tongue in eastern equatorial Pac. Warms Equatorial SST gradient is thus reduced and this further reduces the tradewinds. This then becomes the El Nino condition. http://www.pmel.noaa.gov/tao/elnino/nino-home.html)

  33. La Nina mechanism If trade winds strengthen, then Westward surface flow (SEC) strengthens, warm pool stays in west Upwelling in east provides cold surface water there Equatorial SST gradient is thus increased and this further increases the tradewinds. This then becomes the La Nina condition. http://www.pmel.noaa.gov/tao/elnino/nino-home.html)
