Automated Global Classification of Surface Layer Stratification Using High‐Resolution Sea Surface Roughness Measurements by Satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar

Automated Global Classification of Surface Layer Stratification Using High‐Resolution Sea Surface Roughness Measurements by Satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar

Abstract A three‐state global estimator of marine surface layer atmospheric stratification is demonstrated using more than 600,000 Sentinel‐1 synthetic aperture radar wave mode images at incidence angle ≈36.8°. Stratification is quantified using a bulk Richardson number, Ri, derived from collocated...
