The CERSAT was created in 1991 in order to ensure the off-line processing of ERS-1 and ERS-2 altimeter, scatterometer and microwave sounder data. This task includes acquisition, algorithmic processing, quality control, archiving and distribution of the data to the oceanographic community. In conjunction with scientists of the Département d’Océanographie Spatiale at IFREMER, the CERSAT groups together all skills required to act as a major data distribution and expertise center in oceanography from space. 1, record 1, English, - Centre%20ERS%20d%27Archivage%20et%20de%20Traitement

La mission initiale du CERSAT depuis 1991 est d'assurer l'exploitation des données altimètres, sondeur micro-onde et diffusiomètre des satellites ERS-1 et ERS-2, ce qui inclus l'acquisition, le traitement, le contrôle, l'archivage et la diffusion de produits utilisables par la communauté océanographique. Au sein du Laboratoire d'Océanographie Spatiale, le CERSAT collabore étroitement avec une équipe de chercheurs et d'ingénieurs spécialistes de la physique de la mesure et de l'océanographie. Grâce à cela, le CERSAT possède toute la chaîne de compétences lui permettant de se positionner aujourd'hui comme un centre important de diffusion et d'expertise dans le domaine des mesures océanographiques d'origine spatiale. 2, record 1, French, - Centre%20ERS%20d%27Archivage%20et%20de%20Traitement

Les deux fours à ondes jumelles que nous avons achetés (...) coûtent à peu près le même prix que les fours à micro-ondes réguliers. Les modèles à deux sorties dirigent l'énergie des micro-ondes vers les aliments de deux endroits différents : Les micro-ondes du General Electric venait du sommet et du bas de l'appareil tandis que celles du Litton Moffat arrivaient dans la cavité du four par deux ouvertures dans le sommet. De cette façon, il est à espérer que les ondes pénétreront toutes les parties de la cavité du four (ainsi que les aliments). 1, record 5, French, - four%20%C3%A0%20micro%2Dondes%20%C3%A0%20deux%20sorties
