Measurements during SWATH ship sea trials

IEEE Instrumentation & Measurement Magazine, 2000
A new ship must undergo a rigorous set of sea trials to receive final certification. The sea trials program measures the vessel's performance against its design specifications and code requirements. The performance evaluation includes the ship's powering requirements (ability to achieve and maintain its design speed in a variety of conditions), fuel ...

Characterization of the ocean waves signature to assess the Sea State Bias in wide-swath interferometric altimetry

IGARSS 2018 - 2018 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2018
Ahstract-A comprehensive description of the Sea State Bias (SSB) for wide-swath interferometric (WSI) altimetry is proposed using a two-scale transfer function of the first-of-its-kind instrument, the KaRIn instrument of the SWOT mission. We show that the SSB encompass the contribution of the ElectroMagnetic Bias (EMB) similarly to conventionnal ...

Sub-daily Antarctic sea-ice variability estimates using swath-based retrieval methods

2023
Satellite-derived sea-ice concentration measurements have traditionally been used to evaluate the impact of climate change on polar regions. However, concentration-based measurements of sea-ice variability do not allow the discrimination of the relative contributions made by thermodynamic and dynamic processes.

Submarine landslide origin of a tsunami at the Black Sea coast: Evidence based on swath bathymetry and 3D seismic reflection data

Interpretation, 2021
Tsunami waves were observed along the Bulgarian Black Sea coastline on 7 May 2007. The maximum rise and fall of the sea level were 1.2 and 2.0 m, respectively, with wave oscillations between 4 and 8 min. At first, submarine landsliding and then later on atmospheric disturbance were suggested as the cause of the tsunami.

Satellite-derived sea ice motion data: daily-maps (DM) and swath-to-swath (S2S)

Remotely sensed ice motion is a crucial component in sea, lake, or river ice research. Over the past few decades, the ice movement has been detected and retrieved predominantly through the application of the Maximum Cross-Correlation (MCC) technique by analyzing the overlapped consecutive satellite images.Traditionally, ice motion products have been ...

Towards remote sensed wide-swath sea states from scatterometer: machine learning approach for ASCAT

Remote Sensing of the Ocean, Sea Ice, Coastal Waters, and Large Water Regions 2020, 2020
For decades, the global remotely sensed significant wave heights have been from altimeters and/or synthetic aperture radars in wave mode, which both suffer from spatial and temporal sampling limitations. In contrast, spaceborne scatterometers are with large swath and high temporal revisit frequency at a global scale, but so far are routinely providing ...

Swath bathymetry images of subglacial meltwater features in the Amundsen Sea Embayment, West Antarctica

open access: yes, 2011
There is increasing evidence of an elaborate subglacial meltwater network underneath Antarctic ice sheets and that this meltwater has an important impact on the flow dynamics of ice streams.

Potential of synthetic aperture radar wide swath acquisitions to map sea state variability of European seas

Copernicus Sentinel-1 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) mission systematically acquires data in Interferometric Wide swath mode over European land and water. This study investigates the potential of this data processed into Level-1 (L1) Single Look Complex (SLC) to compute meaningful image cross-spectra over the ocean to retrieve ocean surface waves ...

Geology, sediment patterns, and widespread deformation on the sea floor off Western Samoa revealed by wide-swath imagery

Geo-Marine Letters, 1993
GLORIA and SeaMARC II sea-floor images of offshore Western Samoa reveal large-scale mass movements, volcanism, and structural modification. These processes are driven by hot-spot mantle diapirism and nearby plate subduction. Debris avalanche deposits extend from the island slope onto the adjacent abyssal plains, covering at least 20,000 km2.

Modelling Wave Disturbances on a SWATH Vessel Using Directional Energy Sea Spectra Providing Spatial Wave Profiles in Time

IFAC Proceedings Volumes, 1993
Abstract A method to approximately model the sea, for short and long crested waves is described in this paper. Depth effects are included since this study grew out of a previous study looking into the application of this technique in the shallow running of torpedoes, Chinn and Roberts (1993).
