Multisensor Validation of Ers-1 Sar Wave Mode and Altimeter-derived Significant Wave Heights Using Topex, Geosat and Seasat Data
A comparison of signiicant wave heights H s was performed using satellite altimeter data available between 1978 to 1994 from SEASAT, GEOSAT, ERS-1 and TOPEX. The purpose was to estimate the degree of accuracy between the diierent instruments. Statistical properties of H s as obtained from the altimeters are found to be compatible with those from in situ measurements in the North Atlantic. All H...
متن کاملOcean Wave Parameters Retrieval from Sentinel-1 SAR Imagery
In this paper, a semi-empirical algorithm for significant wave height (Hs) and mean wave period (Tmw) retrieval from C-band VV-polarization Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery is presented. We develop a semi-empirical function for Hs retrieval, which describes the relation between Hs and cutoff wavelength, radar incidence angle, and wave propagation direction relative to radar loo...
متن کاملAn Empirical Method for Estimating Surf Heights from Deep Water Significant Wave Heights and Peak Periods in Coastal Zones Wit
Accurate and timely surf forecasts communicated in a clear, concise manner are essential in planning nearshore activities. In Hawaii, a large population of recreational enthusiasts comprised of both residents and visitors use surf forecasts on a daily basis. Forecasts are vital to commercial ventures, coastal engineers, ecosystem and geophysical researchers, and governmental coastal planners in...
متن کاملDeformation monitoring using Sentinel-1 SAR data
This paper describes the data processing and analysis procedure implemented by the authors to analyse Sentinel-1 data. The procedure is an advanced Differential Interferometric SAR (DInSAR) technique that generates deformation maps and time series of deformation from multiple SAR images acquired over the same site. The second part of the paper illustrates the results of the procedure. The first...
متن کاملSentinel-1 Precise Orbit Calibration and Validation
In this paper, we propose a model-based procedure to calibrate and validate Sentinel-1 orbit products by the Multi-Squint (MS) phase. The technique allows to calibrate an interferometric pair geometry by refining the slave orbit with reference to the orbit of a master image. Accordingly, we state the geometric model of the InSAR phase as function of positioning errors of targets and slave track...
