abstract = "The lack of continuous long-term hydrographic observations,
especially in the South Atlantic Ocean, makes satellite-derived
data an extremely useful tool to investigate time and spatial
variability on a basin scale. Altimeter data, which is not
affected by cloud coverage as infrared-derived data, provides
extremely useful information on the vertical thermal and dynamical
structure of the upper ocean when combined with climatological
hydrographic through a diagnostic model. We present a semi-dynamic
model that combines sea surface height anomalies from
TOPEX/POSEIDON, infrared satellite-derived sea surface
temperature, and World Ocean Atlas 2001 hydrographic data to
generate maps of the Upper Ocean Heat Content Anomaly which is
suitable for climate variability studies.",
