π π°οΈ New method allows now to utilize #Sentinel-3 altimetry data to get reliable water level measurements for rivers as narrow as 20m. This is especially helpful to expand monitoring to ungauged basins.

A new method uniquely validates #Sentinel3 river altimetry by using off-nadir reflections that align directly with in-situ gauges, fixing a major slope-bias problem in narrow rivers.
