Ocean Surface Wind Retrieval Using Passive, Polarimetric Microwave Remote Sensing.

摘要

The long-term goal of this research is to develop a robust, physically based, and efficient algorithm for retrieving ocean surface wind vectors from fully polarimetric, passive microwave observations. This retrieval scheme is intended for data from the Navy's WindSat and other passive microwave sensors of the future, such as the CMIS instrument on the NPOESS meteorological satellites.
