Wave spectra derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images acquired by ENVISATs
are compared to in situ measurements by seven sensors, deployed in a field experiment …

A method is presented to derive two-dimensional sea surface elevation fields from complex
synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data. Applied to spaceborne SAR data as acquired by …

X-and L-band simultaneously obtained synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data of ocean gravity
waves collected during the Marineland Experiment were analyzed using wave contrast …

We have developed a scheme to retrieve surface wave parameters (wave height and wave
propagation direction) from European Remote-Sensing Satellite (ERS) Synthetic Aperture …

A new wave retrieval method for the ERS synthetic aperture radar (SAR) wave mode is
presented. The new algorithm, named semiparametric retrieval algorithm (SPRA), uses the …

Abstract The Grand Banks ERS‐1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) wave spectra validation
experiment took place over a study site in which intensive in situ wind and wave …

Real and synthetic aperture radars have been used in recent years to image ocean surface
waves. Though wavelike patterns are often discernible on radar images, it is still not fully …

Over the past few years, recognition of the importance of the coastal zone has led to the
establishment of international programmes for monitoring the coastal zone environment and …

A procedure is described for using synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery to estimate two-
dimensional ocean wave slope-and height-variance spectra. The logic underpinning the …

In recent years a number of remote sensing techniques capable to provide two‐dimensional
information of the sea surface have been applied to describe sea states. This information is …
