Satellite data central to ocean monitoring
Over 95% of Earth’s water is found in our oceans, and yet sadly, oceans are under stress from climate change and pollution. Monitoring our oceans is vital for Earth’s survival and satellites are the primary means of long-term and independent observation of our vast ocean bodies and their associated coastal zones.

Possible artefacts in Swarm Field Aligned Current Dual s c FAC AC product
Due to the recent manoeuvres to modify the orbits of Swarm-A and C, positioning them in an almost identical orbit during the counter rotating phase the current density estimates from Field-Aligned Current Dual s/c data product (FAC_AC) has been affected by a number of artefacts during last months.

Swarm’s orbital dance: counter-rotating and closer, for the benefit of science
Since variations in Earth’s magnetic field directly reflect the flow of fluid in the outermost core, new information from Swarm will further our understanding of the physics and dynamics of Earth's stormy heart—and the satellites are recently flying in a counter-rotating phase and closer in their separation, to enable scientists to discover new elements.
