Friction Velocity and Aerodynamic Drag Coefficient Retrieval from Sentinel-1 IW Cross-Polarization C-SAR Images under Hurricane Conditions

Friction Velocity and Aerodynamic Drag Coefficient Retrieval from Sentinel-1 IW Cross-Polarization C-SAR Images under Hurricane Conditions

This study presents an approach for friction velocity and aerodynamic drag coefficient retrieval utilizing C-band VH SAR observations from Sentinel-1. The dataset contained 14 SAR images collected under six hurricane scenes co-analyzed with stepped frequency microwave radiometer (SFMR) measurements....
