Our analyses indicate that the sea-surface-height (SSH) biases for all three TOPEX/Poseidon (1992–2005) measurement systems are statistically indistinguishable from zero at the 15 mm level. In contrast, the SSH bias estimates for the newer Jason-1 mission (2001–present) and the Ocean Surface Topography Mission (2008–present) are significantly positive. In orbit for over eight years, the Jason-1 measurement system yields SSH biased by +94 ± 15 mm. Its successor, OSTM/Jason-2, produces SSH measurements biased by +178 ± 16 mm.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1 supp 1</style></issue></record></records></xml>
