Basic monitoring of the marine environment is crucial for the early warning and assessment
of marine hydrometeorological conditions, climate change, and ecosystem disasters. In …

The Winds and Currents Mission (WaCM) is a proposed approach to meet the need
identified by the NRC Decadal Survey for the simultaneous measurements of ocean vector …

Ocean surface currents and winds are tightly coupled essential climate variables, and, given
their short time scales, observing them at the same time and resolution is of great interest …

Ocean current is one of the major drivers of water mass, energy, and biogeochemical cycles
in the global ocean–atmosphere boundary layer and also a key variable in the formation of …

The ocean surface current is a very important parameter of ocean dynamic environment. It is
connected to global climate change, marine environment forecasting, marine navigation …

Field-tower-based observations were used to estimate the Doppler velocity of deep water
plunging breaking waves. About 1000 breaking wave events observed by a synchronized …

Pencil-beam Doppler scatterometers are a promising remote sensing tool for measuring
ocean vector winds and currents from space. While several point designs exist in the …

Ocean surface wind and current are essential ocean dynamic environment and climate
variables, and simultaneous observations at high resolution have attracted considerable …

Abstract Ocean surface radial Doppler Velocity (DV) signatures of Tropical Cyclones (TC) at
moderate incidence angles are analyzed using a semi-empirical DV model. This model …

The Doppler spectrum of a microwave scatterometer signal is determined by the relative
motion between the scatterometer and the ocean surface. It is also determined by the …
