  1. Integrated Multi-Mission Altimeter Data for Climate Research PI: Richard Ray, NASA/GSFC Science Focus Area: Climate Variability and Change Objectives 30 • Develop a coherent and consistent time series of SSH Climate Data Records from multi-mission altimeter data that meet the stringent accuracy requirements for climate research. • Provide a data structure that facilitates time series analysis and enables the celerity of revision as geophysical models evolve. 20 1 cm 10 Mean Sea Level Rise = 3.2 mm/yr Approach Milestones • Precise Orbit Determination (POD) adherence to a consistent geodetic reference frame (ITRF) and gravity field, with unified geophysical modeling. • Vigilant multi-disciplinary calibration and validation procedures. • Developed refined POD strategy (std0909) 08/2008 • Submitted Jason-1/OSTM consistent orbits • for OSTM cal/val 11/2008 • T/P std0809 POD product delivered 02/2009 • Preliminary T/P+Jason-1 product in • validation phase 04/2009 Co-I’s/Partners Co-I Brian Beckley, Nikita Zelensky - SGT Inc.
