TL;DR: In this article, a multi-reanalysis ensemble is used to estimate the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the ocean state and to estimate uncertainty levels.

Global statistical space-time scales of oceanic variability estimated from the TOPEX/ POSEIDON altimeter data
TL;DR: In this paper, a three-dimensional (space-time) correlation function with an anisotropic directional dependence is used to reveal the space-time scales and propagations of the ocean variabilities and statistical errors in the altimeter data.

The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami : Tsunami source model from satellite altimetry
K. Hirata,Kenji Satake,Yuichiro Tanioka,Tsurane Kuragano,Yohei Hasegawa,Yutaka Hayashi,Nobuo Hamada +6 more
TL;DR: Satellite altimetry measurements of sea surface heights for the first time captured the Indian Ocean tsunami generated from the December 2004 great Sumatra earthquake as discussed by the authors, which suggests that the tsunami source, or the seafloor deformation, of the great earthquake propagated to the north at an extremely slow speed of less than 1 km/sec on average for the entire 1300-km-long segment along the northern Sumatra-Nicobar-Andaman Trench.
