Much effort has been put in calibrating and validating the raw data: harmonization of geophysical corrections, of secondary data, and of the measurements themselves. Validation includes editing, tide experiments, radiometer-model collocation, and Rossby and Kelvin waves propagation analysis.
More details can be found in the literature and results sections.
