In 1992, NASA launched TOPEX/Poseidon, the first of a series of satellites that
measure sea level rise from space. It was followed by Jason-1 and OSTM/Jason-2,
and most recently Jason-3 which was launched successfully on January 17, 2016.
Such satellites allow a good knowledge of the status of the oceans and give precious
information on local anomalies.
