Comparison of Geophysical Model Functions for SAR Wind Speed Retrieval in Japanese Coastal Waters

This work discusses the accuracies of geophysical model functions (GMFs) for retrieval of sea surface wind speed from satellite-borne Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images in Japanese coastal waters characterized by short fetches and variable atmospheric stability conditions. In situ observations fr...
