Sentinel-6B/Jason-CS L2 P4 Altimeter Low Resolution (LR) STC Ocean Surface Topography
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR and NASA Data Portal — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.5067/s6bp4-2lsst
Description
Provides low resolution (LR) short time critical (STC; 36-hour latency) measurements of sea surface height anomaly (SSHA), Significant Wave Height (SWH), and Wind Speed, along with 1 Hz and 20 Hz measurements from the radar altimeter, orbit altitude, environmental range corrections, instrument corrections, and geophysical models. The STC product is analogous to the Jason-3 IGDR product.
