The altimeter as a support to the scatterometer in the representation of winds and derived wave fields in coastal waters and enclosed seas: A research at its onset
Abstract
Research on the symbiotic use of altimeter, scatterometer and radiometer in semienclosed seas and coastal waters is introduced. Analysis of SEASAT altimeter data near coastlines and of the coverage of SASS (SEASAT scatterometer) in the Mediterranean is presented.
