CFOSAT: Products Reprocessing and Contributions in Oceanography
IGARSS 2023 - 2023 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2023 Since 2018, for the first time, space measurements of colocated wind vectors and wave spectral characteristics are available thanks to the French/Chinese CFOSAT mission, which carries a wind scatterometer (SCAT) and a wave scatterometer (SWIM). Four years after its launch, CFOSAT data processing has been improved to reach a high level quality, leading ...

CAL/VAL Phase for the Swim Instrument Onboard cFOSAT [PDF]
IGARSS 2020 - 2020 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2020 The Chinese-French oceanography satellite, CFOSAT, was launched on October 2018. Two Ku-band scatterometers are on-board: SCAT for the wind observation and SWIM for the wave observation. This paper presents the most recent results on the SWIM data quality analysis a few months after the end of the CAL/VAL phase.

Kongjian kexue xuebao, 2023 卫星散射计通过测量海表粗糙度反演全球海面风场。对于Ku波段散射计，海表粗糙不仅和海面风场相关，还受海表温度的二阶效应调制。定量研究了海表温度对中法海洋卫星（CFOSAT）散射计（CSCAT）反演风速和后向散射测量的影响。结果表明，CSCAT两种极化方式测量的后向散射系数都会受到海表温度的影响，但是垂直极化中低入射角（θ < 36°）测量的后向散射系数几乎不随温度变化。因此CSCAT的风速偏差也随海表温度的变化而变化，且随着入射角的增大和风速的减小，海表温度对风速偏差的影响程度增大 ...
