  • Abstract
    A study of the latitudinal trend of the retrieved salinity performances along a Southwards transect has been performed, analyzing the trade-off between geophysical effects in cold seawater and the concomitant temporal oversampling under various processing configurations. Quantitative sensitivity with respect to sea surface temperature gradient has been evaluated.
