SSS climatology of March 5-Day SSS from Ascending orbits (Mar. 17-21) Tx & Ty in a xi/eta=0.25 square 41 31 1. Compared with ascending orbits, SSS from descending orbits is lower in the north pacific but higher in the south hemisphere at high latitude. 2. There is a gradient in retrieved SSS, espescially at high latitude why? 5-Day SSS from Descending orbits (Mar. 17-21) Tx & Ty in a xi/eta=0.25 square
SSS from Descending orbits (Mar. 18) Tx & Ty in a xi/eta=0.23 square Using GN 1 for OTT and SSS retrieval Mar.18 T125114_20100318T134515 0N ~ 50S SSS climatology of March SSS from Descending orbits (Mar. 18) Tx & Ty in a xi/eta=0.23 square Using GN 2 for OTT and SSS retrieval OTT computed from an ascending orbit in the East Pacific with different GN models could lead to different retrieved SSS (Not talking about which GN is better)

Conclusions It’s possible that the inaccuracy of GN model lead to 1) Differences of retrieved SSS between ascending and descending orbits. 2) Gradient in retrieved SSS across swath, espescially at high latitude 3) Seasonal differences in SSS 4) Different behavior of OTT w.r.t to retrieved SSS at different latitude 0.2K gradient -0.5K
