“…Furthermore, SAR images also provide useful information on ocean state, including wind speed and direction, gravity waves, swells, currents, sea-ice structures, and meteorological and environmental conditions in bodies of water. Thanks to its aforementioned capabilities, SAR imagery recognised as the gold standard and superior to the optical imagery where the literature abounds various applications which utilise SAR imagery as the main source of information, such as detecting/tracking oil spills [40,41,42,43,44,45], assessment of sea surface signatures [46,47,48,49], ship detection and tracking [50,51,52,53,54], and ice sheets tracking.…”
