Detail: | Station keeping manoeuvre on 06 June 2022 at 08:12:41 UTC. The semi-major axis will be increased by 14 m resulting in radial orbit errors in the OGDRs. OGDR products may be degraded 30 minutes before and up to 2 hours after the manoeuvre. This will affect the sea surface height, but not the wind and wave content in the products.
