Polarimetric passive remote sensing of wind-generated sea surfaces and ocean wind vectors

Proceedings of OCEANS '93, 2002
Investigates the theory of polarimetric passive remote sensing of wind-generated sea surfaces. A two-scale polarimetric scattering and emission model of sea surfaces is developed to interpret existing active and passive remote sensing microwave signatures of sea surfaces, and to investigate the potential application of polarimetric radiometry to ocean ...

Foam effects on polarimetric passive microwave remote sensing of ocean wind vectors

IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2003
In this paper, polarimetric microwave emissions from wind-generated foam-covered ocean surfaces are investigated. A dense media radiative transfer model (DMRT) is applied to the foam layer. The effects of boundary roughness are implemented by using the small perturbation method (SPM) describing the bistatic reflection coefficients between foam and ...

Retrieval and Quality Assessment of Wind Velocity Vectors on the Ocean With C-Band SAR

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2014
Wind vector fields derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sensors show variations at smaller scales than most other globally available surface wind sources. However, few studies have been devoted to the investigation of the accuracy of SAR-derived wind fields at different scales and how they compare with other wind data.

The dependence of nadir ocean surface emissivity on wind vector as measured with microwave radiometer

IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 2002
Global brightness temperature observations of the TOPEX/Poseidon microwave radiometer (TMR) at 18, 21, and 37 GHz have been collocated with near-simultaneous SeaWinds wind vector data as well as with monthly sea surface temperature and salinity products.

Ocean surface foam modeling for passive remote sensing of ocean surface wind vectors

IGARSS '98. Sensing and Managing the Environment. 1998 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing. Symposium Proceedings. (Cat. No.98CH36174), 1998
A method of incorporating ocean surface foam into a combined asymmetric wave geometrical optics (AWGO) ocean surface emission model using dielectric mixing theory is investigated. Dielectric mixing represents a more direct method of denying the emissivity of ocean foam within in the AWGO emission model compared with the current AWGO foam emissivity ...

Intercomparison of four ocean vector wind products from Oceansat-2 Scatterometer

2013 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium - IGARSS, 2013
Statistical distribution of wind speeds and directions contained in four vector wind products based on observations by the Oceansat-2 Scatterometer (OSCAT) over the global oceans were compared to validate the products. The four OSCAT wind products were produced by the National Remote Sensing Center/Indian Space Research Organization (NRSC/ISRO), the ...
