Quikscat wind retrievals for tropical cyclones
2003
IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing
The use of QuikSCAT data for wind retrievals of tropical cyclones is described. The evidence of QuikSCAT 0 dependence on wind direction for 30-m/s wind speeds is presented. The QuikSCAT 0 show a peak-to-peak wind direction modulation of 1 dB at 35-m/s wind speed, and the amplitude of modulation decreases with increasing wind speed. The decreasing directional sensitivity to wind speed agrees well with the trend of QSCAT1 model function at near 20 m/s. A correction of the QSCAT1 model function
