Combined Wind Vector and Sea State Impact on Ocean Nadir-Viewing Ku- and C-Band Radar Cross-Sections
The authors report the first results in studying the polarization anisotropy of themicrowave backscatter from nadir observations provided by Jason-1 altimeter in both Ku-and C-band. A small but clear wind direction signal for wind speeds above 6 m/s is revealed.These azimuthal variations of radar cr...
