Using accurate inputs of wind speed is crucial in wind resource assessment, as predicted
power is proportional to the wind speed cubed. First, wind speeds retrieved from a series of …

A validation of wind retrieval from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images has been
performed by comparing wind speed estimated from European Remote Sensing Satellite …

The global availability of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) wave mode data from the European
Remote Sensing (ERS) satellites ERS-1 and ERS-2, as well as ENVISAT, allows for the …

Wind vector fields derived from synthetic aperture radar (SAR) sensors show variations at
smaller scales than most other globally available surface wind sources. However, few …

Ocean winds in the Baltic Sea are expected to power many wind farms in the coming years.
This study examines satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) images from Envisat ASAR for …

In this paper, the synthetic aperture radar (SAR) azimuth cutoff method is thoroughly revised
and a new and general implementation is proposed. The key roles of the pixel spacing, the …

Wind observations in the marine environment are both costly and sparse. This makes wind
retrievals from satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) an attractive option in connection …

This paper aims to illustrate and test a method, based on the Two-Dimensional Continuous
Wavelet Transform (2D-CWT), developed to extract the wind directions from the Synthetic …

Wind maps are retrieved from ERS-2 Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) scenes by the CMOD-
IFR2 and CMOD4 algorithms for 61 cases at the Horns Rev site in the North Sea and …

High-resolution wind fields retrieved from satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery
are combined for mapping of wind resources offshore where site measurements are costly …
