7. Ocean Currents and Eddies Have Small Scales Conventional altimeters resolve only the large mesoscale eddies (Jason-2/Envisat) High-resolution ocean models suggest a ubiquitous presence of submesocale eddies 50% of the vertical exchange of heat and dissolved CO2 takes place at the submesoscales.

This slide shows the space and time sampling of satellite altimeters . Before I explain how SWOT works, let me briefly go over what has been observed in the existing altimetry data and what has been missing from it
The technique for the new observation is radar interferometry, first demonstrated by JPL’s SRTM.
