Eddies detected in Delayed-Time (DT) for the entire period [1993 - present]. Variables provided include day-by-day, and for one rotation type (Cyclonic/Anticyclonic) : - Center position (Longitude and latitude of the center of the best fit circle with the contour of maximum circum-average geostrophic speed); - Amplitude (|SSH(local_extremum) – SSH(outermost_contour)|); - Speed radius (Radius of the best fit circle with the contour of maximum circum-average geostrophic speed); - Speed average (Average geostrophic speed of the contour defining the speed radius); - Speed profile (Profile speed average values from effective contour inwards to smallest inner contour); - Effective contour (Largest contour of the detected eddy); - Speed contour (Contour of maximum circum-average geostrophic speed for the detected eddy).

-
Product of simulated SWOT sea surface heights from its 2 altimeters: KaRIn interferometric altimeter and Nadir altimeter. This product includes the Level-2 Low Rate (LR) data (L2_LR_SSH) designed for ocean surfaces and Level-2 and Level-3 SSH corrected by estimations of simulated errors.
