SIMULATION STUDY ON THE EFFECT OF SAND DIGGING AND HEAPING ON SAR IMAGING IN THE PEARL RIVER ESTUARY [PDF]
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).

Physics-Based Forward Modeling of Ocean Surface Swell Effects on SMAP L1-C NRCS Observations
This paper examines the impact of ocean surface swell waves on near-coastal L-band high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data collected using the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Soil Moisture Active/Passive (SMAP) radar at

Insect ventral radar cross-section polarisation dependence measurements for radar entomology [PDF]
Radar entomology has developed such that routine long-term monitoring of insect flight through the atmospheric boundary layer is now practical. Typical entomological radars use X-band (9.4 GHz) marine transceivers with a vertical pencil beam and rotate ...

An Assessment of CYGNSS Normalized Bistatic Radar Cross Section Calibration
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

On Doppler Shifts of Breaking Waves
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 ...

Normalized radar backscattering cross-section and Doppler shifts of the sea surface in Ka-band [PDF]
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 ...

Sea Surface Wind Measurement by Airborne Weather Radar Scanning in a Wide-Size Sector
We suggest a conceptual approach for measuring the near-surface wind vector over water using the airborne weather radar, in addition to its standard meteorological and navigation applications.

A semiempirical model of the normalized radar cross‐section of the sea surface 1. Background model [PDF]
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 and wind wave conditions.
