9711932 Swift 本计画主要探讨被动式海洋表面极化遥测技术 风向和风速，并将此技术与散射测量进行比较。 丰富的数据集 将进行分析，以1）开发一个描述辐射斯托克斯的经验模型 参数依赖于风，2）执行傅立叶分析，以表征斯托克斯 参数; 3）将结果与后向散射特征进行比较，4）对物理特征进行建模， 过程有助于响应，和5）评估的潜力，被动旋光 用于基于卫星的海洋表面风矢量感测。

9711932 Swift This project is to investigate passive polarimetric remote sensing of the ocean surface wind direction and speed, and to compare this technique to scatterometry. A rich data set will be analyzed to 1) develop an empirical model describing the radiative Stokes parameters dependence on wind, 2) perform a Fourier analysis to characterize the Stokes parameters; 3) compare the results with backscatter signatures, 4) model the physical processes contributing to the response, and 5) evaluate the potential of passive polarimetry for satellite-based sensing of the ocean surface wind vector.
