2015 OSTST Complete Program

2015 Ocean Surface Topography Science Team Meeting
The objectives of the 2015 OSTST Meeting will be: (1) provide updates on the status of Jason-2 (2) conduct splinter meetings on system performance (orbit, measurements, corrections), altimetry data products, science outcomes, and outreach
In addition to the traditional in-depth analyses of TOPEX/Poseidon-Jason missions, analyses from other missions bringing reciprocal benefits are welcome.
