SUMMARY
26
Summary Time variable gravity field from high-low SST Long wavelength features Refinement in the processing possible/necessary –Spatial error pattern needs to be understood Filter dependency on catchment and application –Processing might include a beneficial smoothing! Remarkable agreement with hydro-meteorology and GPS SWARM? GOCE?
