== Naming == The lineage of the name begins with the JASO1 meeting (JASO=Journées Altimétriques Satellitaires pour l'Océanographie) in [[Toulouse]], France to study the problems of assimilating altimeter data in models. Jason as an acronym also stands for "Joint Altimetry Satellite Oceanography Network". Additionally, it is used to reference the mythical quest for knowledge of [[Jason]] and the [[Argonauts]].[http://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/en/multimedia/publications-and-links/newsletter/newsletter05/a-new-voyage-for-jason.html] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160325111046/http://www.aviso.altimetry.fr/en/multimedia/publications-and-links/newsletter/newsletter05/a-new-voyage-for-jason.html |date=25 March 2016 }}[https://web.archive.org/web/20140117162201/http://www.wmo-sat.info/oscar/satelliteprogrammes/view/85][https://science.nasa.gov/about-us/smd-programs/joint-agency-satellite-division] {{PD-notice}}
