What Book Cover

Satellite radar altimetry had become an important subject matter, following the exceptional progress for measuring the ocean topography and its dynamics. Moreover, improved processing and new algorithms/corrections as well as new missions with enhanced capabilities, has additionally enabled studies of the satellite altimetry for coastal zones, where the highest societal impact is often occurred. Asia, is home to many developing countries (e.g. Malaysia, Indonesia, India and Sri Lanka) with vast population living in the coastal areas. While the Asia coastal region is known to have a devastating impact on climate change, there has been a dramatic increase in the research effort on this novel topic. As the sea level has been listed as one of the Essential Climate Variables (ECVs), the open ocean and coastal altimetry communities have provided significant contributions to support the work of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).

This book aims to provide an up-to-date reference for the latest technical aspects of altimetry, with special focus on the coastal zone and practical experiences to address the gamut of applications with a number of case studies over the Asia coastal oceans. The book is a compilation of recent research works from a group of dedicated experts, intended for students and researchers who are interested in getting acquainted with open ocean and coastal altimetry, and for the expert community to get update about recent results.
