Verification results for a two-scale model of microwave backscatter from the sea surface / by Willard J. Pierson and Mark A. Donelan. : En13-5/86-111E-PDF

"This paper and the companion paper (A Two-Scale Bragg Scattering Model for Microwave Backscatter from Wind Generated Waves, Donelan and Pierson), present a new model for measuring winds over the ocean using satellite borne radar and present a preliminary verification of the model. These works respresent an important advance in our ability to measure wind speed and direction in a synoptic sense over the world's oceans. This in turn is a necessary step in improving weather forecasting. The model will likely be used in future weather satellites"--Management perspective, p. i.
