Absolute calibration of HY-2A and Jason-2 altimeters for sea surface height using GPS buoy in Qinglan,China

GPS buoy methodology is one of the main calibration methodologies for altimeter sea surface height calibration.This study introduces the results of the Qinglan calibration campaign for the HY-2 A and Jason-2 altimeters.It took place in two time slices;one was from August to September 2014,and the other was in July 2015.One GPS buoy and two GPS reference stations were used in this campaign.The GPS data were processed using the real-time kinematic(RTK)technique.The final error budget estimate when measuring the sea surface height(SSH)with a GPS buoy was better than 3.5 cm.Using the GPS buoy,the altimeter bias estimate was about-2.3 cm for the Jason-2 Geophysical Data Record(GDR)Version 'D' and from-53.5 cm to-75.6 cm for the HY-2 A Interim Geophysical Data Record(IGDR).The bias estimates for Jason-2 GDR-D are similar to the estimates from dedicated calibration sites such as the Harvest Platform,the Crete Site and the Bass Strait site.The bias estimates for HY-2 A IGDR agree well with the results from the Crete calibration site.The results for the HY-2 A altimeter bias estimated by the GPS buoy were verified by cross-calibration,and they agreed well with the results from the global analysis method.     

Jason-2测高卫星对湖泊水位的监测精度评价

湖泊水位是评估湖泊水量变化的重要指标。本文以洪泽湖、高邮湖及洞庭湖为研究对象,利用集中度的概率密度函数方法(CPDF)来提高Jason-2测高数据精度,分析了降水量与各个湖泊水位变化的相关性,并基于实测水位数据对比评价了Jason-2测高卫星原始GDR数据和CPDF方法处理后的卫星数据的精度。结果表明:①Jason-2原始GDR数据点的分布存在疏密之分,大部分数据分布相对集中,且有一定的周期变化,但评价结果显示精度较差,故原始GDR数据不能直接用于湖泊水位监测;②CPDF方法可以极大提高测高卫星的水位数据精度,洪泽湖与高邮湖的均方根误差分别由1.92 m与1.74 m减少到了0.32 m和0.36 m,相关系数由0.28和0.04提高到了0.85和0.72。对于南北宽度较窄且日水位变化较大的湖泊(如洞庭湖),CPDF方法提高原始GDR结果的精度有限;③洞庭湖降水与水位相关性最强,高邮湖次之,而洪泽湖降水与水位成不显著的负相关,是洪泽湖水利工程对于水位的调节导致了这一结果。本研究对于利用测高卫星获得湖泊水位值,进而对湖泊进行动态监控,特别是在填补资料匮乏地区湖泊水位数据方面具有重要意义。     

Evaluating and correcting rain effects on dual-frequency altimeter Jason-1 wind measurements

Rain is one of the main sources of error in dual-frequency altimeter Jason-1 wind measurement. In this study, a new radar altimeter backscatter model is proposed and validated to eliminate rain effects. The model takes into account attenuation, volume backscattering, and sea surface perturbation by raindrops under rain conditions. A match-up dataset is built to evaluate rain effects, in combination with the Jason-1 normalized radar cross section, precipitation radar data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission, and sea surface wind reanalysis data from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. The results show that rain-induced surface perturbation backscatter increases with rain rate at Ku-band, but their correlation at C-band is poor. In addition, rain surface perturbation and attenuation have major effects onradar altimeter wind measurements. Finally, a rain correction model for Jason-1 winds is developed and validation results prove its ability to reduce rain-induced inaccuracies in wind retrievals.     

利用Jason-1数据监测呼伦湖水位变化

卫星测高为内陆水域水位变化的实时和连续监测提供了一种高效的技术工具．但是这种应用受到数据点覆盖稀疏的限制。利用Jason-13年（2002-2004）GDRs测高数据作简单的数据编辑,并进行必要的地球物理改正．最后得到内蒙古地区呼伦湖水位变化的时间序列。呼伦湖地区由于近年来持续干旱,水位呈现明显的下降趋势．年平均下降约0．3～0．5m。在一般的内陆水域．水位变化主要取决于降雨量和蒸发量,所以,根据卫星测高所得的水位变化信息．可以为区域气候变化的研究提供一种全新的技术与方法。     

Tracking typhoon-generated swell in the western North Pacific Ocean using satellite altimetry

This paper proposes a scheme for detecting the swell decay of a moving typhoon. We considered a typhoon that was neither far from a point source nor had a belt-like homogenous source,as previously studied. We tracked the swell close to the source during a typhoon in the western North Pacific Ocean. We used wind speed and significant wave height data derived from the Geophysical Data Record of the Jason-1 altimeter and the best-track information of the typhoon from the China Meteorological Administration tropical cyclone database. We selected three specific cases to reveal the decay characteristics of the swell generated by a moving typhoon. Based on an altimeter-based typhoon swell identification scheme and the dispersion relationship for deep water,we relocated the swell source for each altimeter measurement. The subsequent statistical decay coefficient was comparable to previous studies,and effectively depicted the swell propagation conditions induced by the typhoon. We hope that our results provide a new understanding of the characteristics and wave energy budget of the North Pacific Ocean,and significantly contribute to wave modeling in this region.

A METHOD TO ESTIMATE DYNAMIC HEIGHT AND GEOSTROPHIC TRANSPORT RELATIVE TO DEEPER LEVELS FROM 400M EXPENDABLE BATHYTHERMOGRAPH IN THE INDONESIAN THROUGHFLOW

The Expendable Bathythermograph (XBT) Programme used a mix of T4 (450m) and T7(750 m) XBT's during the pre-TOGA periods. Studies are needed to determine how to use the T4/T7 datatogether, in particular with regard to a reference level for calculation of dynamic height and geostrophiccurrents. Temperature profiles to 750 m collected from 1986 through 1989 on the trackline across theIndonesian throughflow between NW Australia and Java are used to show the relations between dynamicbeight and geostriohic flow using reference levels at 400 db and 750 db. A very high temporalcorrelation between vertically averaged temperture in the upper 400 m and dynamic height at 50 m rela-tive to 750 db was found. The corresponding regression relationships are presented for all one degree lati-tude bins along the section and can be used for dynamical calculation of currents in the upper 400 m rel-ative to 750 db .An attempt is made to estimate volume transport relative to 750 db from 400 m pro-files.

Global sea level change and thermal contribution

The global long-term sea level trend is obtained from the analysis of tide gauge data and TOPEX/Poseidon data. The linear trend of global mean sea level is highly non-umiform spatially, with an average rate of 2.2 mm year-1 in T/P sea-level rise from October 1992 to September 2002. Sea level change duc to temperature vanation (the thermosteric sea level) is discussed. The results are compared with TOPEX/Poseidon altimeter data in the same temporal span at different spatial scales. It is indicated that the ther-mal effect accounts for 86% and 73% of the observed seasonal variability in the northern and southern hemispheres, respectively. The TOPEX/Poseidon observed sea level lags behind the TSI, by 2 months in the zonal band of 40°-60° in both the northern and southern hemispheres. Systematic differences of about 1-2cm between TOPEX/Poseidon observations and thermosteric sea level data are obtained. The potential causes for these differences include water exchange among the atmosphere, land, and oceans, and some pos-sible deviations in thermosteric contribution estimates and geophysical corrections to the TOPEX/Poseidon data.
