1. The difference between the ocean surface and the actual geoid gives ocean surface topography . 2. The surface topography is commonly displayed as a pseudocolor plot. 3. The van der Waals force of adhesion is also dependent on the surface topography . 4. Additionally, the incident angle and the scattered angle help determine the sample surface topography . 5. The permanent deviation between the geoid and mean sea level is called ocean surface topography . 6. Ocean surface topography can be derived from ship-going measurements of temperature and salinity at depth. 7. These included sea surface topography , sea surface temperature, atmospheric water vapor, and ocean surface imaging. 8. In this situation, the feedback output equals the sample surface topography to within a small error. 9. Beyond the effects of convectively driven motion, deep processes have other influences on the surface topography . 10. Ocean surface topography is caused by ocean waves, tides, currents, and the loading of atmospheric pressure.
