- Toward 1-mGal accuracy in global marine gravity from CryoSat-2, Envisat, and Jason-1 (2013, methodology): “Previous studies have shown (Maus et al., 1998; Sandwell and Smith, 2005) that the arrival time and rise time are highly correlated during the parameter estimation, resulting in less than optimal estimates of arrival time.”
- Gravity field recovery from geodetic altimeter missions (2019, background): “Forcing the SWH to a smoothed and prescribed value, serves to partially decouple the correlated errors of rise time and arrival time (Sandwell and Smith, 2005; Amarouche et al., 2014; Zaron and DeCarvalho, 2016).”
- The DNSC08GRA global marine gravity field from double retracked satellite altimetry (2010, methodology): “…in the Arctic Ocean using a robust retracker, Hwang and Hsu (2003) who retracked altimetry in the China Sea; Fairhead et al. (2004) who retracked data in several coastal regions, and finally Sandwell and Smith who applied retracking to version 16.1 marine gravity field (Sandwell and Smith 2005).”
- Global marine gravity from retracked Geosat and ERS‐1 altimetry: Ridge segmentation versus spreading rate (2009, methodology): “Two previous studies have demonstrated up to 40% improvement in range precision by optimizing the retracking algorithm to achieve high range precision at the expense of recovering small spatial scale variations in ocean wave height [Maus et al., 1998; Sandwell and Smith, 2005 ].”
- Small-scale open-ocean currents have large effects on wind-wave heights (2017, background): “One would think that this variability of Hs could be easily validated with satellite altimeter data, but this is generally not the case for scales shorter than 100 km [Sandwell and Smith, 2005].”
