Sea Surface Height Anomaly, 2003-2005 (WMS)

Changes in the normal height of the ocean's surface were observed by the TOPEX/Poseidon altimeter.

This animation shows the sea surface height anomaly. This animation is primarily designed to be accessed from the SVS Web Map Services (WMS) server. Each frame represents the accumulation of data over about a 10-day period ending at the date and time indicated in the WMS metadata.    This animation shows the sea surface height anomaly.
