Enhanced Resolution for Aquarius Salinity Retrieval Near Land-Water Boundaries
Utku, C., and Le Vine, D.M. (10-Sep-15)

A numerical reconstruction of the brightness temperature is examined as a potential way to improve the retrieval of salinity from Aquarius measurements closer to land-water boundaries. A test case using simulated ocean-land scenes suggest promise for the technique.
