Airborne measurements of the electromagnetic bias
The sea-level estimation of satellite altimetry is affected by a sea-state related error, the so called electromagnetic (EM) bias. The ocean-wave troughs reflect the radar signals stronger than the crests, which then biases the altimeter mean sea level measurements towards the troughs. In order to e...
