Wind Speed Retrieval Based on Sea Surface Roughness Measurements from Spaceborne Microwave Radiometers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ind speed is the main factor responsible for the increase in ocean thermal emission because sea surface emissivity strongly depends on surface roughness. An alternative approach to estimate the surface wind speed (SWS) as ...
Global Trends of Sea Ice: Small-Scale Roughness and Refractive Index
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Sea ice is one of the most important parameters in the global climate system, specifically the exchange of energy and momentum between the ocean and the atmosphere. In previous studies, a steady decline in Arctic sea ice ...
Comparison of the Infrared Surface Emissivity Model (ISEM) with a Physical Emissivity Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Accurate models of surface emissivity are important for interpreting satellite radiance observations. Surface emissivity depends on the satellite zenith angle, roughness, polarization, and refractive index of the surface. ...
