SWOT mission• NASA and CNES, launch in 2019• 970km orbit, 78°inclination, 22 days repeat• KaRIN: InSAR Ka band• Wide swath altimeter
• Ocean: “Low resolution” meso-scale and submeso-scalephenomena (10km and greater)
• Hydrology: “High resolution”surface area above (250m)² rivers above 100m

Goals• Need for a simulator for scientific users (hydrology)– “Fast”: 3 months 3min– Easy to use: no need for heavy preparation of input data– Portable– Relatively realistic errors
• Targets: deltas, rivers, lakes…
• Output: water elevation

Simulator output: water heightThe Amazon river, Brazil

Assimilation methodology• Assimilating SWOT
observations in a identical twin synthetic experiment
• Ohio River study domain (only main stem)
• LISFLOOD hydraulic model• Ensemble Kalman filter• Errors introduced to boundary inflows, channel width,
depth and roughness• Observation errors from a Gaussian distribution

Assimilation results• Water surface elevation along the river channel at two SWOT
overpass times
208 Hours 280 Hours
• Information is not always propagated down/up stream• Small ensemble size could partly be the reason

Conclusions• Simulation of SWOT data with more representative errors
• The simulator is more user friendly: output format as input format, GUI, can be used with several models
• Can be used for assimilations studies (estimate indirect valuables)
• Need to improve the simulator: layover, decorrelation due to vegetation, troposphere …
