High Wind Geophysical Model Function Modeling for the HY-2A Scatterometer Using Neural Network
Remote Sensing, 2022 Under low to medium wind speeds and no rainfall, the retrieved vector wind from a scatterometer is accurate and reliable. However, under high wind conditions, the currently used geophysical model function (GMF), such as NSCAT-2, for wind vector retrieval
