Abstract

For the first time, co-located wind vectors and wave spectral characteristics are available thanks to the French/Chinese CFOSAT mission, which includes a wind scatterometer SCAT and a wave scatterometer SWIM. Three years after its launch, CFOSAT data is thoroughly qualified and various scientific work has been undertaken. This paper focuses on CFOSAT SWIM data, its performance and scientific contribution to oceanography, coastal and sea ice study.
