Typically, CSEOF reconstructions slightly underestimate sea level amplitudes while EOF reconstructions overestimate sea level amplitudes, in some cases, significantly.

Increasing the variance explained by the basis functions from 70% to 90% reduces the efficacy of an EOF reconstruction to reproduce common ocean indices when noise is included in the tide gauge data sets. These results show that in the idealized comparative cases examined the CSEOF method of sea level reconstruction creates more robust reconstructions, especially when less than ideal tide gauge data are used.</jats:p> A comparative study of sea level reconstruction techniques using 20 years of satellite altimetry data Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans |
