Monomission altimeter satellite along-track sea surface heights computed with respect to a twenty-year mean. Previously distributed by Aviso+, no change in the scientific content. All the missions are homogenized with respect to a reference mission which is currently OSTM/Jason-2. The sla is computed with an optimal and centered computation time window (6 weeks before and after the date). Two kinds of datasets are proposed: filtered (nominal dataset) and unfiltered.

Multimission altimeter satellite gridded sea surface heights and derived variables computed with respect to a twenty-year mean. Previously distributed by Aviso+, no change in the scientific content. All the missions are homogenized with respect to a reference mission. The acquisition of various altimeter data is a few days at most. The sla is computed with a non-centered computation time window (6 weeks before the date).

The mean sea surface (MSS) is an important field in physical oceanography, geophysics, and geodesy. In principle, it corresponds to the time-averaged height of the ocean surface. Auxiliary product : mean sea profile above a reference ellipsoid (T/P or WSG84). This surface is available on a regular grid (1/60°x1/60°, 1 minute). Another grid provides the estimation of error fields which represent the MSS accuracy estimated through the inverse technique.

Advanced Along-Track Scanning Radiometer multimission data have been reprocessed to provide update retrievals of Sea Surface Temperature (SST) to produce the AATSR Reprocessing for Climate (ARC) dataset.

Monomission altimeter product: OSTM/Jason-2. These products were produced by CLS in the framework of the Pistach project, funded by Cnes.

The CTOH computes and distributes specific, coastal along-track sea level anomalies (SLA) using its X-TRACK processor over 23 regions, for all precise altimeter missions : Topex/Jason-1/Jason-2/Jason-3 (+Topex Interleaved orbit (TPN)/Jason-1 Interleaved orbit (J1N)), SARAL/AltiKa, Envisat, Geosat Follow On The CTOH computes and distributes specific, coastal along-track sea level anomalies (SLA) using its X-TRACK processor for all precise altimeter missions : Topex/Poseidon (TP), Jason-1 (J1) , Jason-1 interleaved (J1N), Topex/Poseidon interleaved (TPN), Jason-2, Geosat Follow on (GFO) and Envisat. X-TRACK cover today all the coastal oceans, with 23 new regions.

Along-track altimetric GDR (Geophysical Data Record) products , geophysical and environmental corrections to apply. Available missions are: GFO, Topex/Poseidon, Envisat, Cryosat-2, Jason-1, Jason-2, Jason-3, Saral/AltiKa. Missions with several successive orbital types are treated in their entirety. Compared to the original version of the GDR files distributed by the CNES, ESA, NASA and ISRO agencies, the CTOH proposes new corrections and parameters in these files, which are to be applied to the initial altimetry measurement, according to user needs. Children metadata files are available for each mission.

Monomission Sentinel-3A altimetry product, LR-RMC mode (Low-Resolution with Range Migration Correction) with along-track level-2 estimations at 20Hz rate in LR-RMC mode. LR-RMC associated waveforms are also included, as well with the geophysical corrections applied to the altimeter range (SGDR files).

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).
