An Investigation of non-Bragg Scattering from the Sea Surface

Abstract

The long-range objective of this work is to investigate non-Bragg sea surface scattering at intermediate angles of incidence. We seek to define the characteristics and statistical properties of these scatterers and to establish a link between radar observations and the underlying physical processes.
