Operational remote sensing of oil slicks at sea by microwave radiometry
Abstract
Active microwave radiometry for oil spill thickness and volume estimation in the seas around France are reviewed. The technical solutions and the integration into an operational system are considered. Operating limits and development possibilities are discussed.
