“…It consists of a constellation of eight microsatellites, whose primary objective is the measurement of near‐surface wind speed over the ocean in and near the inner core of tropical cyclones (Ruf, Atlas, et al, , Ruf, Gleason, & McKague, ). CYGNSS operates continuously over both ocean and land, and some other scientific utilities have been demonstrated with the CYGNSS observations (Chew et al, ; Chew & Small, , Kim & Lakshmi, ; Ruf, Chew, et al, ). Moreover, the raw intermediate frequency samples of the direct and reflected signals (known as Level 0 or L0 data) have been also recorded occasionally for the exploration of other possible GNSS‐R applications.…”
