A Marine Radar Wind Sensor
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A new method for retrieving the wind vector from radar-image sequences is presented. This method, called WiRAR, uses a marine X-band radar to analyze the backscatter of the ocean surface in space and time with respect to ...
Observations of Bora Events over the Adriatic Sea and Black Sea by Spaceborne Synthetic Aperture Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Bora events over the Adriatic Sea and Black Sea are investigated by using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images acquired by the advanced SAR (ASAR) on board the European satellite Envisat. It is shown that the sea surface ...
Real-Time Ocean Wind Vector Retrieval from Marine Radar Image Sequences Acquired at Grazing Angle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper proposes a novel algorithm for retrieving the ocean wind vector from marine radar image sequences in real time. It is presented as an alternative to mitigate anemometer problems, such as blockage, shadowing, and ...
Near-Surface Current Mapping by Shipboard Marine X-Band Radar: A Validation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe Lagrangian Submesoscale Experiment (LASER) involved the deployment of ~1000 biodegradable GPS-tracked Consortium for Advanced Research on Transport of Hydrocarbon in the Environment (CARTHE) drifters to measure ...
