继成功的NSCAT任务之后，QuikScat/SeaWinds散射计（Qscat）以前所未有的覆盖范围和分辨率提供地球表面的归一化雷达横截面(o)测量。虽然最初是为风观测设计的，但散射计已被证明在各种陆地和冰的研究中很有用。为了帮助选择研究的地区和时间段，杨百翰大学制作了一个全球浏览产品。该产品由Qscat L1B值在一天内的时空平均值组成。本报告简要介绍了该产品。
Following up on the successful NSCAT mission, the QuikScat/SeaWinds scatterometer (Qscat) provides normalized radar cross section ( o) measurements of the Earth's surface at unprecedented coverage and resolution. While originally designed for wind observation, scatterometers have proven useful in a variety of land and ice studies. To aid in the selection of regions and time periods for study, a global o browse product is produced by Brigham Young University. This product consists of spatial and temporal averages of Qscat L1B o values over a one-day period. This report brie y describes this o browse product.
