Ocean Wind Retrieval Models for RADARSAT Constellation Mission Compact Polarimetry SAR
We propose two new ocean wind retrieval models for right circular-vertical (RV) and right circular-horizontal (RH) polarizations respectively from the compact-polarimetry (CP) mode of the RADARSAT Constellation Mission (RCM), which is scheduled to be ...

First Assessment of CyGNSS-Incorporated SMAP Sea Surface Salinity Retrieval Over Pan-Tropical Ocean
In sea surface salinity (SSS) retrieval using L-band passive radiometry, radiometer-independent ocean wind speed is needed as auxiliary data. Wind speed data from scatterometer and weather models are commonly used as auxiliary data in satellite SSS ...

Wind of change: retrieving exoplanet atmospheric winds from high-resolution spectroscopy [PDF]
Context. The atmosphere of exoplanets has been studied extensively in recent years, making use of numerical models to retrieve chemical composition, dynamical circulation, or temperature from the data. One of the best observational probes in transmission is the sodium doublet thanks to its extensive cross-section.

Optimal Interpolation Model for Synthetic Aperture Radar Wind Retrieval
The variational model inversion (VAR) method for synthetic aperture radar (SAR) wind retrieval based on the Bayesian theory can overcome the limitations of the traditional wind streak algorithm by introducing background wind and considering all sources ...

C-band scatterometer and wind-field retrieval
The wind scatterometer is a microwave active sensor capable of simultaneously measuring the normalized radar cross section (?o) of the sea surface with high radiometric accuracy at different azimuth angles. The scattering process governing the electromagnetic wave - sea surface interaction allows these measurements to be related to the sea surface wind

WIND SHEAR IDENTIFICATION WITH THE RETRIEVAL WIND OF DOPPLER WEARTH RADAR [PDF]
Abstract. A new method, which based on the wind field retrieval algorithm of Volume Velocity Process (VVP), has been used to identified the intensity of wind shear occurred in a severe convection process in Guangzhou. The intensity of wind shear’s strength shown that new cells would be more likely to generate in areas where the magnitude generally ...
