An efficient computational framework far the extraction of mesoscale features, ie, internal
waves, present in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images is discussed. The manifestation of …

Oceanographers and remote sensing researchers have long recognized the potential of
using satellite imagery for studying oceanic internal waves. Radars are able to image …

Within the last years a considerable number of large ships have been lost due to severe sea
state conditions. The cause of accidents are in many cases believed to be rogue waves …

A new framework is presented for an automated approach to identify possible internal wave
packets in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images as a means to infer primary information …

After reviewing and discussing the difficulties of dealing with automatic interpretation
methods in SAR imagery, the advantages of using a multiscale time-frequency framework …

When deriving a directional ocean wave spectrum from a synthetic-aperture radar (SAR)
image of the ocean surface, spectral analysis of the image data is a key step. In this paper, a …

To monitor, map, and model sediment transport in big river estuaries, complete maps of
bottom topography are needed. This information is obtained by extracting shorelines from …

The two-dimensional wavelet transform is a very efficient bandpass filter, which can be used
to separate various scales of processes and show their relative phase/location. In this paper …

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 …

There is an inherent 180 degrees ambiguity in the derived wave propagation direction when
using conventional spectral analysis techniques on standard synthetic aperture radar (SAR) …
