Development of a Fast Convergence Gray-Level Co-Occurrence Matrix for Sea Surface Wind Direction Extraction from Marine Radar Images

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
The new sea surface wind direction from the X-band marine radar image is proposed in this study using a fast convergent gray-level co-occurrence matrix (FC-GLCM) algorithm. First, the radar image is sampled directly without the need for interpolation due

An Energy Spectrum Algorithm for Wind Direction Retrieval From X-Band Marine Radar Image Sequences

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
In this study, an energy spectrum (ES) algorithm is proposed to retrieve wind direction from X-band marine radar image sequences. This algorithm is based on utilizing the occlusion area zero-pixel percentage to distinguish rain-free and rain-contaminated

Porcupine‐Quill‐Inspired Shape‐Morphing Biointerfaces Disassemble Biofilms [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced science
A porcupine‐spine‐inspired dynamic offensive bio‐interface is developed for active biofilm disassembly. By coupling electrically driven nano‐dagger penetration with light‐triggered ROS generation, the surface overcomes the passive limitations of conventional mechano‐bactericidal topographies, achieving near‐complete biofilm eradication, strong ...

Algorithm for sea surface wind retrieval from TerraSAR-X and TanDEM-X data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
A Geophysical Model Function (GMF), denoted XMOD2, is developed to retrieve sea surface wind field from Xband TerraSAR-X/TanDEM-X (TS-X/TD-X) data. In contrast to the previously developed XMOD1, XMOD2 consists of a nonlinear GMF, and thus, it depicts ...

Study of Ocean Waves Measured by Collocated HH and VV Polarized X-Band Marine Radars

open access: yesInternational Journal of Antennas and Propagation, 2016
The significant wave height (SWH) retrieved from collocated HH and VV polarized X-band marine radars under different sea states is studied. The SWH are retrieved from different principal components of X-band marine radar image sequence.
