Significant wave height is one of the most important parameters for characterizing ocean
waves and essential for coastal protection, shipping, as well as off shore industry operations …

Marine radars are increasingly popular for monitoring meteorological and oceanographic
parameters such as ocean surface wind, waves and currents as well as bathymetry and …

In the conventional space-time signal model, the statistical amplitude of the clutter is
assumed to be a specific distribution. For sea clutter, a pulse-to-pulse correlation matrix is …

Observations of microwave backscatter from shoaling and breaking surface waves acquired
with a shore-based, coherent-on-receive X-band marine radar are presented. The radar was …

Radar scattering from ocean surfaces is investigated by 3-D numerical solution of Maxwell's
equations [numerical Maxwell's model in 3-D (NMM3D)] using the ocean surface profiles …

The composite electromagnetic scattering characteristics of movable/rotatable targets
coexisting with a randomly rough sea surface are studied by the extended propagation …

We investigate some temporal properties of the microwave backscattered field from the sea
surface at low incidence, namely, the decorrelation time and the Doppler shift distribution …

Surface wave energy and dissipation are observed across the surf zone. Utilizing the
concept of surface rollers, a new scaling is introduced to obtain the energy flux and …

Results of a coastal measurement campaign called MediterraneAn Rfc and cLutter
ENvironmental Experiment (MARLENE) are presented and studied. The campaign was held …

Shipboard coherent microwave radar has been a rapidly developing tool for ocean wave
measurements. However, the radial velocity estimated from echoes collected with a …
