Detail:The Sentinel-6 PDP configuration update to Processing Baseline F07 adds a number of different improvements such as: The availability of High Resolution Microwave Radiometer (HRMR) data in all radiometer products, extending the wet path delay measurements into coastal areas, with a performance goal of 1.0 cm accuracy within 5-50 km from the coast. The usage of ECHO CAL as main source of CAL1, thus removing any impacts to SSHA retrievals from variations of internal path delay around the orbit. The introduction of a forecasted dynamic atmospheric corrections (MOGF) in L2 NRT production, improving the NRT SSHA accuracy and crossovers differences. An associated Product Notice will be available soon.
