A semiempirical model of the normalized radar cross section of the sea surface, 2. Radar modulation transfer function [PDF]
Journal of Geophysical Research, 2003 Multiscale composite models based on the Bragg theory are widely used to study the normalized radar cross section (NRCS) over the sea surface. However, these models are not able to correctly reproduce the NRCS in all configurations. In particular, even if they may provide consistent results for vertical transmit and receive (VV) polarization, they fail

Sea Ice Detection Method Using the Dependence of the Radar Cross-Section on the Incidence Angle
Remote SensingThe method for sea ice detection using the data from the Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) onboard the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellite data is suggested. The approach is based on the analysis of the shape of normalized radar cross-

Normalized Radar Scattering Section Simulation and Numerical Calculation of Freak Wave
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022 The improved phase modulation method is used to numerically simulate a two-dimensional freak wave. While generating freak waves at specific positions, the spectral structure of the target spectrum can also be maintained, and the statistical ...

On the dielectric properties and normalized radar cross-section of crude oil-contaminated sea ice
, 2017 This thesis explores the effects of crude oil spilled beneath young sea ice on the dielectric properties and normalized radar cross-section of the ice at microwave (C-band) frequencies. The dielectric profile, also referred to as the complex permittivity profile, of sea ice is a governing factor in how the ice scatters incident electromagnetic waves ...
