Physics-Based Forward Modeling of Ocean Surface Swell Effects on SMAP L1-C NRCS Observations

This paper examines the impact of ocean surface swell waves on near-coastal L-band high-resolution synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data collected using the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Soil Moisture Active/Passive (SMAP) radar at 40° incidence angle. The two-scale model and...
