Description/Abstract

The present study investigates the long wavelength, baroclinic Rossby wave signal from 10 years of sea level anomalies in the South Pacific Ocean determined from ERS (European Remote Sensing satellite) and T/P altimeter observations, and attempts at correlating the results with bathymetry.
