SURFACE CURRENT MAPPING OFF CALIFORNIA WITH RADIOMETRY AND ALTIMETRY

Surface coastal currents off California are a good example of the complex variability in space and time of currents in an ocean basin eastern boundary. Conventional oceanographic measurements are unable to resolve these relatively small scale variations but by employing both satellite imagery and sa...
