| 1. | The difference between the ocean surface and the actual geoid gives ocean surface topography.
|
| 2. | The surface topography is commonly displayed as a pseudocolor plot.
|
| 3. | The van der Waals force of adhesion is also dependent on the surface topography.
|
| 4. | Additionally, the incident angle and the scattered angle help determine the sample surface topography.
|
| 5. | The permanent deviation between the geoid and mean sea level is called ocean surface topography.
|
| 6. | Ocean surface topography can be derived from ship-going measurements of temperature and salinity at depth.
|
| 7. | These included sea surface topography, sea surface temperature, atmospheric water vapor, and ocean surface imaging.
|
| 8. | In this situation, the feedback output equals the sample surface topography to within a small error.
|
| 9. | Beyond the effects of convectively driven motion, deep processes have other influences on the surface topography.
|
| 10. | Ocean surface topography is caused by ocean waves, tides, currents, and the loading of atmospheric pressure.
