Abstract:
- An effect of oceanic wind waves which influences the reflected upward radiation emerging from ocean surface is discussed for atmospheric correction algorithm of visible range remote sensing. The traditional atmospheric correction algorithm assumes that the ocean surface is flat and homogeneous. In the majority of case, the ocean surface is ruffled by wind waves, gravity waves and whitecaps. Cox and Munk (1954) describe the probability density of wave slopes as a function of wind speed and def...
