A 1-D interferometric system at 1.4GHz, 6.9GHz, 18.7 GHz and 23.8GHz combined with a scatterometer at 1.26GHz, called microwave imager combined active/passive (MICAP), has been proposed to retrieve sea surface salinity (SSS) and to reduce geophysical errors due to surface roughness and sea surface temperature (SST). The MICAP will be a candidate payload onboard the Ocean Salinity Satellite of China...
A 1-D multi-band interferometric radiometer combined with a scatterometer at 1.26GHz, called microwave imager combined active/passive (MICAP) has been proposed to retrieve sea surface salinity, sea surface temperature, wind speed etc. together. Theoretical basis of synergetic retrievals of multiparameters including SSS using MICAP is introduced and a short introduction to MICAP's principle characteristics...
Sea surface salinity as an ocean variable plays an important role in various components of the water and energy cycle. Recently a Chinese space mission using a new concept of Microwave Imager Combined Active and Passive (MICAP) at L-band is proposed for the ocean salinity measurement. MICAP uses interferometric techniques for both the radiometer and the scatterometer, which adopt two kinds of linear...
