Validation of NOAA CyGNSS Wind Speed Product with the CCMP Data
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CyGNSS) mission was launched in December 2016, which can remotely sense sea surface wind with a relatively high spatio-temporal resolution for tracking ...

Wind Direction Retrieval Using Spaceborne GNSS-R in Nonspecular Geometry
A wind direction retrieval algorithm using spaceborne global navigation satellite system reflectometry (GNSS-R) in nonspecular geometry is presented. This article first focuses on investigating the influence of wind direction on the scattering strength ...

Abstract Enhanced small‐scale ionospheric irregularities during geomagnetic storms can disturb Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) carrier‐phase tracking and are associated with reduced stability of ambiguity‐fixed precise point positioning (PPP‐AR), but their impact on kinematic positioning remains insufficiently quantified.

Scatterometers provide very stable ocean vector wind data records. This is because they measure the ratio of backscattered to incident microwave signal over the ocean surface as opposed to an absolute quantity (e.g., emitted microwave signal).

Trends in Aquatic Environmental DNA Research in Alaska
Environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis is an emerging tool with significant potential to advance biomonitoring, particularly in remote and logistically challenging environments. To evaluate the state of eDNA research in Alaska, we conducted a literature review and a regional survey and results provide the first comprehensive overview of eDNA research in ...

The image intensity of high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is closely related to the facet scattering distribution. In this paper, the effects of wind wave spectra, non-Gaussianity of the sea surface, and swell on the distribution of the facet

US East Coast synthetic aperture radar wind atlas for offshore wind energy [PDF]
We present the first synthetic aperture radar (SAR) offshore wind atlas of the US East Coast from Georgia to the Canadian border. Images from RADARSAT-1, Envisat, and Sentinel-1A/B are processed to wind maps using the geophysical model function (GMF ...

The First Archaeomagnetic Age at Tiwanaku and Implications for Dating Andean Metallurgical Furnaces
ABSTRACT This paper presents the first archaeomagnetic dating at Tiwanaku (Andean Altiplano). We compared the geomagnetic field values recorded by a metallurgical furnace against an updated SHAWQ2k‐SH global model and a regional intensity curve, both of which include, for the first time, high‐quality intensity data from the Southern Hemisphere.

Optimization of Airborne Scatterometer NRCS Semicircular Sampling for Sea Wind Retrieval
Airborne scatterometer capability depends on not only the device’s technical characteristics but also the scheme used for surface observations. Typically, a rotating-beam scatterometer uses a circular scheme for sampling normalized radar cross-sections ...
