The satellite data used has Sea Level Anomaly (SLA), which as far as I understand excludes the effects of tides and the atmosphere (pressure and wind). What is left if the mesoscale variability (eddies, major currents, steric effect, etc).
For that reason this is not the right product to validate our model's TWL (unless you are interested in assessing mesoscale processes).
We might have to look at level2 products or level3 products that have all necessary variables (ssh, Mean Sea Surface (mms), ocean_tide, load_tide, etc.)
