The Effect of Sea Surface Slicks on the Doppler Spectrum Width of a Backscattered Microwave Signal

open access: yesSensors, 2008
The influence of a surface-active substance (SAS) film on the Doppler spectrum width at small incidence angles is theoretically investigated for the first time for microwave radars with narrow-beam and knife-beam antenna patterns.

Chung-Li, Taiwan dual mode (Doppler and spaced antenna) VHF radar: Preliminary specifications [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
A major unresolved question in the field of atmospheric research using VHF radar techniques is the relative merit of the two most widely used systems. These systems are the Doppler method and the spaced antenna method.

Accurate and Robust Sensing of the Ionosphere With Uncoded Long Pulse ISR Measurements: 2. Differential Drift Inversions Using Lag Profile Phase Data

open access: yesRadio Science, Volume 61, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract A method of estimating heavy (O+) and light (H+ and He+) ion drift velocities in the topside F‐region ionosphere using Arecibo uncoded long pulse data is presented. We show that multi‐ion drift velocity estimation using long pulse ACF phase data requires accurate knowledge of ionospheric state parameters, such as temperatures and compositions,

A Modified Hierarchical Vision Transformer for Soil Moisture Retrieval From CYGNSS Data

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract This research introduces a new deep learning (DL) framework, multi‐head self‐attention‐aided vision Transformer (MSA‐ViT), for soil moisture (SM) retrieval using Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) data. We first assess the sensitivity of CYGNSS reflectivity (Γ) $({\Gamma })$ to SM, demonstrating a strong physical linkage ...

An alternative representation of Synthetic Aperture Radar images as an aid to the interpretation of englacial observations [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Ground-penetrating radar reveals subsurface geometry and ice stratigraphy that contains information about past and present dynamics of the cryosphere. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is a processing technique based on averaging the radar echoes received ...

Baseline Climatology of Gravity Waves From ∼30 to ∼70 km Established With Lidar Observations Over a Decade at McMurdo (77.84°S, 166.67°E), Antarctica: Implications for Vertical Wave Evolution

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2026.
Abstract Lidar observations of atmospheric gravity waves (GWs) have been made spanning 14 years above McMurdo Station, Antarctica. Using these extensive observations and interleaved data processing techniques which enable bias‐free/noise‐floor‐free estimation of GW parameters, this study forms seasonal baselines for GW potential energy densities (Epm ...
