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 would be applied to data from the Navy s WindSat and other passive microwave sensors of the future, such as the CMIS instrument on the NPOESS meteorological satellites.
