A semiempirical algorithm for SAR wave height retrieval and its validation using Envisat ASAR wave mode data
WANG He, ZHU Jianhua, YANG Jingsong, SHI Chaoying
2012, (3): 59-66. doi: 10.1007/s13131-012-0206-z
Abstract:
Many synthetic aperture radar (SAR) wave height retrieval algorithms have been developed. However, the wave height retrievals from most existing methods either depend on other input as the first guess or are restricted to the long wave regime. A semi...
Satellite observations of the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the surface water of the Huanghai Sea and the Bohai Sea
TAO Zui, QIN Bangyong, LI Ziwei, YANG Xiaofeng
2012, (3): 67-73. doi: 10.1007/s13131-012-0207-y
Abstract:
Based on 5 831 continuous in situ measurements of the partial pressure of carbon dioxide on the sea surface p (CO2), related parameters of the sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll-a (Chl a) concentration in 2010 winter, spring and summer of ...
