MADT - Maps of Absolute Dynamic Topography and Absolute Geostrophic Velocities
Entry ID:
AVISO_MADT
Summary
Abstract:
Contents: gridded sea surface heights above geoid; dynamic topography is the
sum of sea level anomaly (SLA) and mean dynamic topography (MDT, Rio05 here) Use: study of the general circulation (ocean gyres ...) Global gridded data (1/3°x1/3° on a Mercator grid), available in near-real time and in delayed time in NetCDF format. In delayed time, two types of products are available: - "Ref" ... ![]()

Access Constraints
Access to Ssalto/Duacs products
Ssalto/Duacs products use Jason-1, Envisat, GFO, ERS-1, ERS-2 and Topex/Poseidon data. File format is NetCDF, but the system also delivers images in Postscript format (only for gridded products). Ssalto/Duacs system delivers global and specific regional products; combined datasets are also provided for high precision ... ![]()
Use Constraints
When using Ssalto/Duacs data (NRT or DT-(M)SLA and (M)ADT), please cite: "The
altimeter products were produced by Ssalto/Duacs and distributed by Aviso, with support from Cnes". See http://www.aviso.oceanobs.com/html/donnees/tools/citations_uk.html for additional details. Ancillary Keywords
