Journal ArticleDOI
A semiempirical model of the normalized radar cross‐section of the sea surface 1. Background model
TL;DR: In this article, a physical model that takes into account not only the Bragg mechanism, but also the non-Bragg scattering mechanism associated with wave breaking was developed to explain the background behavior of the NRCS and the wave radar Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) at HH and VV polarization.
Journal Article
A semiempirical model of the normalized radar cross-section of the sea surface. 1. Background model : Fluxes, surfaces waves, remote sensing, and ocean circulation in the North Mediterranean Sea: results from the FETCH experiment
TL;DR: In this paper, a physical model that takes into account not only the Bragg mechanism, but also the non-Bragg scattering mechanism associated with wave breaking was developed to explain the background behavior of the NRCS and the wave radar Modulation Transfer Function (MTF) at HH and VV polarization.
Journal ArticleDOI
A self‐consistent model of Jupiter's magnetodisc including the effects of centrifugal force and pressure
TL;DR: In this paper, a self-consistent axisymmetric stationary MHD model of the Jovian magnetosphere is presented, in which both the centrifugal force and the pressure gradients exerted on the plasma are taken into account.
Journal ArticleDOI
Issues concerning the sea emissivity modeling at L band for retrieving surface salinity
TL;DR: In this article, a two-scale sea surface emissivity model was used to simulate brightness temperature at L band (1.4 GHz) and the influence of wind speed on Tb with various parameterizations of the sea wave spectrum was explored.
Journal ArticleDOI
A semiempirical model of the normalized radar cross section of the sea surface, 2. Radar modulation transfer function
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a physical model that takes into account not only the Bragg mechanism but also the non-Bragg scattering associated with radio wave scattering from breaking waves.
