2016 OSTST Complete Program

2016 Ocean Surface Topography Science Team Meeting
The objectives of the 2016 OSTST Meeting will be: (1) provide updates on the status of Jason-2, and Jason-3 (2) conduct splinter meetings on system performance (orbit, measurements, corrections), altimetry data products, science outcomes, and outreach, (3) preliminary analysis of data from the Jason-3 altimeter, which was launched on January 17th 2016.
Since this will be our first OSTST after the successful launch of Jason-3, please indicate in your abstract submissions whether you plan to include any analysis of data from Jason-3.
In addition to the traditional in-depth analyses of TOPEX/Poseidon-Jason missions, analyses from other missions bringing reciprocal benefits are welcome, notably Sentinel-3A that was successfully launched on February 16th 2016.
