This dataset contains all satellite altimeter wave heights above 9 m, from the following satellite missions: ERS-1, ERS-2, Topex-Poseidon (Topex only), Envisat, SARAL, Jason-1,...
The feasibility of the use of Geosat altimeter-derived wind speed and significant wave height data for operational applications is investigated. Geosat wind and wave data are compared with buoy observ
