Abstract:Spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) has been proven to be a useful technique for observing the sea surface wind and current over the open ocean given its all-weather data-gathering capability and high spatial resolution. In addition to the commonly used radar return magnitude quantified by normalized radar cross section (NRCS), the Doppler centroid anomaly (DCA) has added another dimension of information. In this study, we combine the NRCS and DCA for a joint inversion of wind and surface current informa… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
