摘要：
Sea surface salinity is a key parameter for the study of ocean circulation, global water cycle and hence climate changes. In response to these measurement needs, Aquarius was selected recently for the third NASA Earth System Science Pathfinder (ESSP) Announcement of Opportunity for a planned launch date in September 2008. The characteristics of the Aquarius instrument are provided in this paper.
