| Description: |
This study investigates sea surface salinity (SSS) variations in the tropical Indian Ocean (IO) using the Aquarius/Satelite de Aplicaciones Cientificas-D (SAC-D) and the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) satellite data and the Argo observations during July 2010-July 2014. Compared to the Argo observations, the satellite datasets generally provide SSS maps with higher space-time resolution, particularly in the regions where Argo floats are sparse.
