Abstract: | Two techniques for extracting internal wave signature from airborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery are presented. The first technique involves the extraction of a single-scan signature and appropriate for the validation of theoretical models which utilize sea truth from a limited area as input. The second technique involves creating a signature by averaging the results from a number of single scans within the same scene and is appropriate for trend analyses. The utility of both techniques is illustrated using internal wave signatures present in a multifrequency, airborne SAR data set |
