Due to non-uniform spatialtemporal sampling of the scatterometer, interpolation procedures cannot provide proper estimates in data gaps over the regions not covered by a swath. ...
Another consequence of the spatial-temporal interpolation is that the winds are distorted at a frequency matching the dominant sampling interval (3-4 days) of QuikSCAT measurements over the Bay of Bengal ...
