The German Bight: A validation of CryoSat-2 altimeter data in SAR mode

•Coherent and incoherent processing of SAR altimetry give consistent unbiased results.•Sea level and wave height from SAR are twice as precise as Pseudo Pulse Limited data.•Look Up Tables significantly benefit SWH retrieval during SAR altimeter processing. The retrieval of the three geophysical para...
