Data Type: This sea level dataset contains the sea surface height above geoid derived from the AVISO/DUACS altimeter climate data record [1]. DUACS (Data Unification and Altimeter Combination System) is a system ensuring the processing of multi-mission altimeter data in order to provide a consistent and homogeneous catalogue of products for varied applications, both for near-real time applications and offline studies.
