On Measurement of the Sea Surface Wind Vector by the Airborne Weather Radars Having a Various Scanning Sector
A method for estimating the near-surface wind vector over water using the airborne weather radar in addition to its standard navigational application is discussed. A case of an airplane rectilinear flight over the water surface is considered. The radar operates in the ground-mapping mode in the range of middle incidence angles as a scatterometer. Wind vector is recovered from the azimuth normal...
متن کاملMicrowave Measurement of the Wind Vector over Sea by Airborne Radars
The oceans of the Earth work in concert with the atmosphere to control and regulate the environment. Fed by the sun, the interaction of land, ocean, and atmosphere produces the phenomenon of weather and climate. Only in the past half-century meteorologists have begun to understand weather patterns well enough to produce relatively accurate, although limited, forecasts of future weather patterns...
متن کاملUse of SAR wind measurement techniques to support offshore wind farming
Active microwave radar satellites transmit and receive radar signals with wavelengths in the range of centimeters to one meter thus measuring the roughness of the sea surface, which enables the retrieval of wind and ocean wave fields. Synthetic Aperture Radars (SAR) are capable of imaging synoptic wind fields with a coverage of up to 500 km x 500 km and a resolution of down to 100 m. As the rad...
متن کاملAn Improved Local Gradient Method for Sea Surface Wind Direction Retrieval from SAR Imagery
Sea surface wind affects the fluxes of energy, mass and momentum between the atmosphere and ocean, and therefore regional and global weather and climate. With various satellite microwave sensors, sea surface wind can be measured with large spatial coverage in almost all-weather conditions, day or night. Like any other remote sensing measurements, sea surface wind measurement is also indirect. T...
متن کاملA new approach to wind turbine power generation forecasting, using weather radar data based on Hidden Markov Model
The wind is one of the most important and affecting phenomena and is known as one of the significant clean resources of energy. Apart from other atmospheric parameters, the wind has complex behavior and intermittent characteristics. Local phenomena can be accompanied by the wind, which is strong, non-predicted, and damaging. Weather radars are capable of detecting and displaying storm-related ...
