TOPEX, ERS, Jason-1, ENVISAT, and GFO) with a simple analytic model, accounting for the
nonisostatic sea level response to atmospheric pressure in the East (Japan) Sea, reduces
aliasing effects and trackiness errors better than the standard inverted barometric (IB)
correction. The rms difference between the two corrections is 2-3 cm with maximum
difference of up to 15 cm (mostly during winter). The model correction reduces more
trackiness compared to the IB correction. The differences between the two corrections  ...
