Popis: | The performance of sea surface salinity (SSS) obtained from the Aquarius satellite is evaluated. Daily, weekly, and monthly Aquarius SSS data between September 2011 and August 2013 from the tropical Indian Ocean (TIO) are compared with the surface most salinity observations ( 0.6) was observed everywhere, except the coast of Oman, western equatorial Indian Ocean, and south of 20° S. A seasonal comparison has also revealed that both Aquarius and Argo are in agreement; in addition, the Aquarius SSS clearly shows the seasonal salinity cycle of the TIO. |
