An Analysis of SeaWinds Simultaneous Wind/Rain Retrieval in Severe Weather Events
Scatterometers, such as SeaWinds, can provide wide coverage of ocean surface winds. They estimate near-surface wind vectors by relating measured radar backscatter to a geophysical model function. However, SeaWinds measurements are also sensitive to rain, and conventional wind retrieval degrades in r...
