Abstract

At first, we cite briefly the well-known regularities of forming a microwave radiation of the ocean-atmosphere system at the range of millimeter and centimeter radiowaves. Brief review of influence of the air-sea dielectric properties is made based on materials given in the monograph by Armand et al. (Problems of Modern Radio Engineering and Electronics. General Editorial Board for Foreign Publications, Moscow, 103-150, 1985), and later, in the monograph by Armand and Polyakov (Radio Propagation and Remote Sensing of the Environment. CRC Press LLC, Boca Raton, 2005), as well as in original monograph by Basharinov et al. (Radio Emission of the Planet Earth. Nauka, Moscow (in Russian), 1974). Some basic principle and ways of using the satellite-derived data of passive microwave radiometric measurements for estimating the vertical turbulent fluxes of heat, water, and impulse at the boundary of the SOA in various time scales are analyzed. The possibilities of using these methods for retrieving the SOA parameters, which are directly or marginally communicated with an intensity of heat and dynamic ocean-atmosphere interaction, are presented.
