The upcoming Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) satellite mission, planned to launch in 2022, is the first mission to focus on measuring hydrological processes in Earth''s surface water. As such, SWOT will vastly expand observations of global rivers ≥100 m wide. SWOT will provide a ...
1. Introduction Scheduled to launch in 2022, the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission is the first satellite designed with a specific objective of observing earth's rivers (Biancamaria et al., 2016; Durand et al., 2010). During the 3 years that it will spend in ...
The Surface Water Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission was recommended in 2007 by the National Research Council's Decadal Survey, "Earth Science and Applications from Space: National Imperatives for the Next Decade and Beyond", for implementation by NASA. The SWOT mission is a partnership between two ...
About 50% of the vertical exchange of water properties (nutrients, dissovled CO2, heat, etc) in the upper ocean is taking place at the sub-mesoscale. Measurements from the Surface Water and Ocean Topography satellite mission (SWOT) will make strides in understanding these processes and improving...

With the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) program, the wide-swath satellite will improve the measured SSH resolution potentially down to a spectral wavelength of 15 km44, which will enable a more accurate diagnosis of the anisotropy of the SSH wavenumber spectrum. Meanwhile, certain ...
