1."Satellite Altimetry in Geodesy and Oceanography (Lecture Notes in Earth Sciences)" by Reiner Rummel and Fernando Sansò
“Satellite Altimetry in Geodesy and Oceanography (Lecture Notes in Earth Sciences)” Book Review: The book is a comprehensive guide to satellite altimetry and future space missions, covering both geodesy and oceanography. It delves deeply into the analysis and utilization of the altimetric signal, as well as the physical theory of ocean circulation, tides, and time-variability, from an oceanographic perspective, and the orbit theory. Additionally, it provides insight into the formation of the radial orbital error and includes an analysis of geodetic boundary value problems, as well as the integrated determination of the gravity field and radial orbital error. This book is an essential resource for both oceanographers and geodesists alike.
