On the 20 April 2010 the oil platform Deep Water Horizon in the Gulf of Mexico suffered an
explosion during the final phases of drilling an exploratory well. As a result, an oil film …

In this study, we analyzed the ocean surface wind speed dependence of off‐nadir data from
the Surface Waves Investigation and Monitoring (SWIM) aboard the Chinese‐French …

A Ku-band low incidence backscatter model (KuLMOD) for retrieving wind speeds from
Tropical Rainfall Mapping Mission (TRMM) precipitation radar (PR) data is proposed. The …

Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) consists of Ka-and Ku-band radars which operate
in scanning mode at low incidence angles. It is installed on the Global Precipitation …

A Ku-band geophysical model function for wind speed retrieval named as KuLMOD-H is
proposed based on the quasi-specular reflection model for the Chinese Tiangong-2 …

An improved two-scale model (I-TSM) for the incidence angle transition range (5°–11°) is
proposed by analyzing the contributions of both quasi-specular and Bragg scatterings to the …

In this study, a large amount of data from precipitation radar (PR) and National Data Buoy
Center (NDBC) buoys are collocated for the development and validation of a Geometrical …

This article proposes a simple Ku-band wind and rain backscatter model at low-incidence
angles for describing sea surfaces where rain is present. The data used consisted of the sea …

In this study, sea surface wind speed was retrieved using the Global Precipitation
Measurement (GPM) dual-frequency precipitation radar (DPR) Ka-band data. In order to …

The Precipitation radars onboard the Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission (TRMM)
satellite (1997-2014) and onboard the Glopal Precipitation Measurement (GPM) satellite …
