Eddy stirring in the Southern Ocean (2011, methodology): “height anomaly fields optimally interpolated to a (1)3 Mercator grid by Aviso from TOPEX/POSEIDON, Jason‐1, ERS‐1, ERS‐2 and Envisat altimetric observations [Traon et al., 2003]. This data set is used in conjunction with an estimate of the absolute sea surface dynamic topography with fine mesoscale ”
Global observations of nonlinear mesoscale eddies (2011, unknown): “High-resolution sea-surface height (SSH) ﬁelds constructed by merging measurements from two simultaneously operating altim-eters (Ducet et al., 2000; Le Traon et al., 2003) have revealed that SSH variability is dominated by westward-propagating nonlinear mesoscale eddies throughout most of the…”
The Irminger Gyre: Circulation, convection, and interannual variability (2011, methodology): “Since October 1992, sea surface height (SSH) anomalies from multiple satellite altimeter missions have been consistently combined using state-of-the-art merging techniques and mapped onto a 1/31 grid at weekly temporal resolution (Ducet et al., 2000; Le Traon et al., 2003).”
