Sea Water Ocean Topography (SWOT) is a radar interferometry mission making SSH measurements over a swath 120 km wide. There is a nadir gap of 20 km where the error from interferometry is not meeting science requirement. The mission's calval requirement is to validate the along-track SSH performance in terms of a wavenumber spectrum of the measurement error by comparison to in-situ measurement. The current candidate for the in-situ measurement is an array of gliders along the center of a swath to resolve the dynamic height at wavelengths of 15-150 km.

Rutgers University will deploy and operate a glider in the Southeast Gulf of Alaska for about a 60-day deployment(s) in July-September 2022 to assess seawater pH and other oceanographic measurements including temperature, salinity, optical properties (i.e., chlorophyll, CDOM, backscatter), and dissolved oxygen. The glider will be deployed from a small vessel off the coast of Sitka, AK and conduct a zig-zag transect southward to Ketchikan (depending on currents), then return north to Sitka for a planned recovery by the R/V Rachel Carson.
