Linear retrieval and global measurements of wind speed from the Seasat SMMR [PDF]

open access: yes
Retrievals of wind speed (WS) from Seasat Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (SMMR) were performed using a two-step statistical technique. Nine subsets of two to five SMMR channels were examined for wind speed retrieval.
