Measuring Winds and Currents with Ka-Band Doppler Scatterometry: An Airborne Implementation and Progress towards a Spaceborne Mission

Measuring Winds and Currents with Ka-Band Doppler Scatterometry: An Airborne Implementation and Progress towards a Spaceborne Mission

Ocean surface winds and currents are tightly coupled, essential climate variables, synoptic measurements of which require a remote sensing approach. Global measurements of ocean vector winds have been provided by scatterometers for decades, but a synoptic approach to measuring total vector surface c...
