SWOT Level 2 KaRIn Low Rate Sea Surface Height Data Product - Basic, Version C
The L2 sea surface height data product is distributed in one netCDF-4 file per pass (half-orbit) covering the full KaRIn swath width, which spans 10-60km on each side of the nadir track. Sea surface height, sea surface height anomaly, wind speed, significant waveheight, and related parameters are provided on a geographically fixed, swath-aligned 2x2 km2 grid (Basic, Expert, Windwave). The sea surface height data are also provided on a finer 250x250 m2 "native" grid with minimal smoothing applied (Unsmoothed).
Please note that this collection contains SWOT Version C science data products.
This collection is a sub-collection of its parent: https://podaac.jpl.nasa.gov/dataset/SWOT_L2_LR_SSH_2.0 It provides the "Basic" file from each L2 SSH product, which contains a limited set of variables and is aimed at the general user." height="12px" width="12px">
