The Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) onboard the European Satellite ERS-2 is operated in wave mode over the global oceans whenever no image mode data acquisition is requested. In the present paper new SAR algorithms to derive sea state at German Aerospace Center (DLR) are shortly introduced and used to determine SAR derived ocean parameters from wave mode data. Global Significant wave height statistics...
Currently the European satellites ERS-2 and ENVISAT are flying on the same orbit with a time separation of 30 minutes. In this presentation pairs of the respective synthetic aperture radar data are analyzed with respect to different atmospheric and oceanic processes. The presented results were obtained in the framework of the ESA AO project COTAR. The tandem configuration exists since the launch of...
