SIMULATION STUDY ON THE EFFECT OF SAND DIGGING AND HEAPING ON SAR IMAGING IN THE PEARL RIVER ESTUARY [PDF]
The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2013 There are frequent sand digging and heaping activities in shoal in the Pearl River Estuary (PRE). Water depth has changed in patches, which can be imaged by synthetic aperture radar (SAR).

An Assessment of CYGNSS Normalized Bistatic Radar Cross Section Calibration
IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2019 A cyclone global navigation satellite system (CYGNSS) $\sigma _o$ calibration analysis is presented using version 2.0 of the Level 1 dataset available on PO.DAAC. Three separate analyzes are conducted, namely, an examination of the specular bin location (in delay) and $\sigma _o$ relationship, an investigation of the impact of recently improved

A Marine Radar Wind Sensor [PDF]
, 2007 A new method for retrieving the wind vector from radar-image sequences is presented. This method, called WiRAR, uses a marine X-band radar to analyze the backscatter of the ocean surface in space and time with respect to surface winds.

Normalized radar backscattering cross-section and Doppler shifts of the sea surface in Ka-band [PDF]
2017 Progress In Electromagnetics Research Symposium - Spring (PIERS), 2017 Field data taken from the Black Sea Research platform during 2009–2015 are used to develop a dual-co-polarized (VV and HH) empirical model for the sea surface normalized radar cross-section (NRCS) and Doppler Velocity (DV) in the Ka-band. A fitting function for the NRCS is the standard truncated Fourier series in azimuth with polynomial coefficients ...

Repair Wind Field of Oil Spill Regional Using SAR Data [PDF]
, 2015 In this paper, we compared the normalized radar cross section (NRCS) of the synthetic aperture radar in the cases of oil spill and clean sea areas with image samples and determined their thresholds of the NRCS of SAR. we used the NRCS of clean water from

On Doppler Shifts of Breaking Waves
Remote Sensing, 2023 Field-tower-based observations were used to estimate the Doppler velocity of deep water plunging breaking waves. About 1000 breaking wave events observed by a synchronized video camera and dual-polarization Doppler continuous-wave Ka-band radar at ...
