This report outlines the validation status of the Ocean Salinity Processor Algorithm conducted by Samantha Lavender, Paul Spurgeon, and Caesar Mugerin. Key topics include the noise and bias study (priority 1), data processing summary plots, and a comparison between data products (DP) and final products (FP). The document highlights the successful completion of the algorithm validation, improvements achieved with a geometric angle fix, and future work required in additional studies. Feedback from ESL has been considered for further progress in priority 3 tasks.
