Variability of the winter wind waves and swell in the North Atlantic and North Pacific as revealed by the Voluntary Observing Ship data [PDF]

, 2006
This paper analyses secular changes and interannual variability in the wind wave, swell, and significant wave height (SWH) characteristics over the North Atlantic and North Pacific on the basis of wind wave climatology derived from the visual wave ...

Impact of rain, swell, and surface currents on the electromagnetic bias in GNSS-Reflectometry [PDF]

, 2016
The assessment of the electromagnetic (EM) bias is required to predict the performance of upcoming global navigation satellite systems-reflectometry (GNSS-R) altimetry systems, and its impact in data assimilation climate studies. In previous studies, the

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.

Ocean Surface Anomalies after Strong Winds in the Western Mediterranean Sea

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019
The Western Mediterranean Sea is often subject to intense winds, especially during the winter season. Intense winds induce surface cooling associated with anomalous ocean heat loss, upwelling and diapycnal mixing. In this study we investigate the overall

Improving GNSS-IR Sea Surface Height Accuracy Based on a New Ionospheric Stratified Elevation Angle Correction Model

Remote Sensing
Approximately 71% of the Earth’s surface is covered by vast oceans. With the exacerbation of global climate change, high-precision monitoring of sea surface height variations is of vital importance for constructing global ocean gravity fields and ...
