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 …

Improvement of methods for satellite monitoring of the world ocean state is one of the most
important areas of the remote sensing because of the influence the oceans have on 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 …

Permanent monitoring of inland waters in cold regions with long-time snow and ice covers is
very important for the population safety. Modern spaceborne radars can significantly extend …

The dual-frequency precipitation radar (DPR) was launched in 2014 to make precipitation
measurements. Simultaneous measurements at two frequencies open up new vistas in …

Dual-frequency precipitation radar (DPR) is a powerful instrument for remote sensing of sea
waves but its application is yet limited. Measurements of a radar backscattered signal are …

The concept of radar using a knife-like antenna beam is discussed and compared with
precipitation radar (PR). An example of PR data processing is given. Two approaches are …

The contribution to the variance of the slopes of the sea surface, which create waves of
different lengths, is analyzed. The data of remote sensing (radar, radiometric and optical …

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

The Global Precipitation Measuring (GPM) was proposed jointly by US and Japan and
satellite equipped with a dual-frequency precipitation radar (DPR) and a microwave …
