This thermocline separates the warm water of the Gulf Stream from the cold slope water and the boundary is often referred to as the cold wall or north wall.

Satellite altimeters have been providing continuous global measurements of sea level, ocean wind speeds and wave heights for over 25 years, and provide a key contribution for monitoring climate change. However, there is a difficulty in retrieving accurate measurements close to the coast. An innovative processing technique has been developed in the UK [United Kingdom] to retrieve this data, and is applied, in this project, to data from the Jason1 series of altimeter satellites for the Mozambique, Madagascar and South Africa coastal regions. The "coastal altimeter data" generated will be delivered through a web-based portal, and the project team will support local partners in using the data...  2, record 3, English, - coastal%20altimeter%20data

Earth observation satellites are used to observe the earth surfaces, sea surfaces, ocean currents, clouds, etc., from space. Observation instruments are installed on satellites for remote sensing purposes. There is a relatively short development time for a long duration mission. Once launched, it has the advantage of being able to observe wide areas. Instrument operations can be easily performed from the console of a ground control station. Issues with satellite-based remote sensing are as follows : a lengthy development time from planning to actual operations, significant initial investments, risk of launch failure and inability to repair the satellite up in space.  1, record 10, English, - observation%20satellite

Il offre à chacun d'entre eux une multitude de raisons d'observer la Terre depuis l'espace dans le moyennement visible aussi bien que dans l'infrarouge ou en ondes radar qui, elles traversent les nuages. Équipés de systèmes de vision de plus en plus performants, les satellites d'observation sont capables de couvrir de manière systématique et répétitive des portions de territoires immenses et produisent des images pourtant très détaillées. Ainsi le satellite français «SPOT», qui représente la référence en matière de télédétection civile permet de découvrir des objets d'une dizaine de mètres sur chacune des images de 60 km de côté qu'il prend à l'altitude de 830 km à laquelle il orbite. Ses capacités de visée oblique autorisent à la fois la prise de vues stéréoscopiques qui restituent le relief du terrain, et l'observation répétée d'une même région sans attendre d'en repasser à la verticale. Recul, détail, répétitivité et souplesse d'emploi par une programmation au jour le jour : autant d'atouts qui font du satellite un outil proche des besoins des clients utilisateurs, organismes nationaux ou internationaux comme simples particuliers.  2, record 10, French, - satellite%20d%27observation

The Ocean Topography Experiment(TOPEX/Poseidon) is an advanced satellite radar altimetry system which provides global sea level measurements with an unprecedented accuracy. The sea level data from TOPEX/Poseidon is used to determine global ocean circulation and to increase the knowledge of the interaction of the oceans and the atmosphere.  1, record 22, English, - Ocean%20Topography%20Experiment

The FLORENCE program(flux Océaniques restitués par bilan d’énergie à la surface, or ocean fluxes restored from surface energy budgets) involved determination of fluxes from SST(sea surface temperature) observations combined with stress and radiative flux estimates from satellite data alone. The FLORENCE method consists of the inverse of a three-dimensional oceanic mixed-layer model in order to infer the net surface heat flux that yields an exact simulation of the observed SST, the model being otherwise forced by wind stress data.  2, record 23, English, - ocean%20fluxes%20restored%20from%20surface%20energy%20budgets

The Canadian Geomagnetic Reference Field(CGRF) is a mathematical model of the geomagnetic field over Canada. It is produced by carrying out a spherical cap harmonic analysis on numerous observations of the magnetic field made on the ground, at sea, in the air, and a satellite altitudes between 1960 and 1994. The latest CGRF is for 1995, but contains time terms that enable it to be used over the time interval 1960 to 2000.  1, record 25, English, - Canadian%20Geomagnetic%20Reference%20Field

Le Champ de référence géomagnétique du Canada (CGRF) est un modèle mathématique du champ géomagnétique du Canada. Il a été produit grâce à l'analyse des harmoniques de la calotte sphérique à partir des nombreuses observations du champ magnétique qui ont été effectuées au sol, en mer, dans les airs et aux altitudes de satellite entre 1960 et 1994. Le modèle du CGRF le plus récent date de 1995, mais il contient des équations temporelles qui permettent de l'utiliser pour différents intervalles de temps entre 1960 et l'an 2000.  1, record 25, French, - Champ%20de%20r%C3%A9f%C3%A9rence%20g%C3%A9omagn%C3%A9tique%20du%20Canada

Satellite image.... The most common is the infrared image which indicates the temperature of the cloud tops(or the land or sea in cloud free areas). Visible images are also used, but are only useful during daylight hours. Infrared images are most commonly used as they can be taken through night-time hours.  4, record 26, English, - infrared%20image

These images come from satellites which remain above a fixed point on the Earth (ie. they are "geostationary"). The infrared picture shows the same view but looking at a part of the spectrum which our eyes do not detect. The infrared pictures allow us to measure the temperature of the cloud tops, which can be used to determine their height. The whiter clouds are colder than the greyer clouds in this image. Infrared images can be recorded 24 hours a day. Visible pictures can only be made during daylight hours.  5, record 26, English, - infrared%20image
