Analysis of Coherent Microwave Data Collected on the Ocean over Two Decades

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project is to fully utilize microwave backscattering data sets that have been collected on the ocean over the last two decades. The prime objective is to better understand the formation of breaking waves on the ocean and their effect on microwave backscatter.
