Аннотация:The theory of similarity for wind-driven seas is applied to the physical analysis of the problem of sea state bias (SSB) in altimetry measurements. Dimensionless wave steepness and pseudo-age derived from altimetry measurements are expected to provide physically relevant and accurate enough SSB estimates. Analysis of Jason-1,2,3 and SARAL/AltiKa data within the approach shows the similarity and robustness of SSB distributions re-casted onto space of wave pseudo-age and steepness. This result is considered as a ground for developing a new parametric model of SSB and for analysis of underlying physical effects.
