Ocean Wave Slope Observations Using Radar Backscatter and Laser Altimeters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Combination of laser and radar aboard an aircraft is used to directly measure long gravity wave surface tilting simultaneously with nadir-viewing microwave backscatter from the sea surface. The presented dataset is extensive, ...
Measurement of Directional Wave Spectra Using Aircraft Laser Altimeters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A remote sensing method to measure directional oceanic surface waves by three laser altimeters on the NOAA LongEZ aircraft is investigated. To examine feasibility and sensitivity of the wavelet analysis method to various ...
