A Study of Internal Wave Propagation in the Strait of Gibraltar Using Shore-Based Marine Radar Images
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An X-band marine radar on Windmill Hill, Gibraltar, was used to monitor the propagation of internal waves in the Strait of Gibraltar during March, April, and June 1986. Surface roughness features of the waves were observed ...
Coastal Oceanography Applications of Digital Image Data from Marine Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A marine radar attached to a digital image capture system has been adapted for deployment from shore sites. Optimum operating parameters have been identified in relation to the resolution and sampling capabilities of both ...
Quantitative Microwave Backscatter Measurements from the Ocean Surface Using Digital Marine Radar Images
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The capabilities for quantitative measurements of the ocean backscatter at low grazing angles of a conventional low-budget X-band marine radar associated with a commercial digital capture board are investigated. Details ...
An Infrared Sea Surface Temperature Autonomous Radiometer (ISAR) for Deployment aboard Volunteer Observing Ships (VOS)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The infrared SST autonomous radiometer (ISAR) is a self-calibrating instrument capable of measuring in situ sea surface skin temperature (SSTskin) to an accuracy of 0.1 K. Extensive field deployments alongside two independent ...
The Calibration and Intercalibration of Sea-Going Infrared Radiometer Systems Using a Low Cost Blackbody Cavity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: There are many infrared radiometer systems available for the measurement of in situ sea surface skin temperature (SSST). Unfortunately, the marine environment is extremely hostile to optical components, and to ensure the ...
Solid-State Radiometer Measurements of Sea Surface Skin Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Satellite sea surface skin temperature (SSST) maps are readily available from precisely calibrated radiometer systems such as the ERS along-track scanning radiometer and, in the near future, from the moderate-resolution ...
