Ocean Tides for and from TOPEX/POSEIDON.

摘要: Comparisons of TOPEX/POSEIDON tidal solutions derived from the data first year this altimetric mission with best previous models and in situ show very substantial improvements. Typically, gain accuracy for major lunar component M2 is 30 percent root-mean-square differences reference to a standard ground truth set 78 stations distributed over world ocean. This step, obtained because high quality these data. The combination recent numerical through assimilation methods pointing toward at ultimate limits practical accuracy.
