Surface roughness signatures of summer arctic snow-covered sea ice in X-band dual-polarimetric SAR

GIScience & Remote Sensing, 2020
Surface roughness of sea ice is primary information for understanding sea ice dynamics and air–ice–ocean interactions. Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is a powerful tool for investigating sea ice surface roughness owing to the high sensitivity of its ...

Quantitative Evaluation of the Effects of Large-Scale Sea Wave Components on Microwave Backscattering From Ocean Surface

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2022
This article quantitatively examined the effect of these long-wave components with wavelength larger than the Bragg component on radar backscattering using the series-expanded first-order small-slope approximation (SSA-1) and the Hwang sea wave spectrum ...

Improved Simulation of the Polar Atmospheric Boundary Layer by Accounting for Aerodynamic Roughness in the Parameterization of Surface Scalar Exchange Over Sea Ice

Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, 2023
A new, simple parameterization scheme for scalar (heat and moisture) exchange over sea ice and the marginal ice zone is tested in a numerical weather and climate prediction model.

Effect of Spraying and Mesh Size on Surface Roughness of SS400 Steel Sandblasting Process

Journal of Renewable Energy and Mechanics, 2021
During this time the ship's hull often occurs due to corrosion levels of salt in the Indonesian sea varies. The repair process often done to overcome this problem is by sandblasting which aims to clean the metal from the surface of the rust and provide ...

Coastal Waveform Retracking in the Slick-Rich Sulawesi Sea of Indonesia, Based on Variable Footprint Size with Homogeneous Sea Surface Roughness

Remote Sensing, 2019
Waveforms of radar altimeters are often corrupted due to heterogeneous sea surface roughness within footprints, such as slicks. In past studies, subwaveform retrackers such as the adaptive leading edge subwaveform retracker (ALES) which use only a ...

The FuGas 2.5 Updated for the Effects of Surface Turbulence on the Transfer Velocity of Gases at the Atmosphere–Ocean Interface

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
Accurately estimating air–water gas exchanges requires considering other factors besides wind speed. These are particularly useful for coastal ocean applications, where the sea-state varies at fine spatial and temporal resolutions.

Characterizing winter landfast sea-ice surface roughness in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago using Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar and the Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer

Annals of Glaciology, 2020
Two satellite datasets are used to characterize winter landfast first-year sea-ice (FYI), deformed FYI (DFYI) and multiyear sea-ice (MYI) roughness in the Canadian Arctic Archipelago (CAA): (1) optical Multi-angle Imaging SpectroRadiometer (MISR) and (2)

Wettability versus roughness of engineering surfaces [PDF]

, 2011
Wetting of real engineering surfaces occurs in many industrial applications (liquid coating, lubrication, printing, painting, ...). Forced and natural wetting can be beneficial in many cases, providing lubrication and therefore reducing friction and wear.
