Modeling of the SOA MCW and IR Characteristics and Their Relations With the Air–Sea Heat Interaction

  • First Online:
Microwave Radiation of the Ocean-Atmosphere

Abstract

In this chapter, we present some results of modeling an intensity of natural microwave radiation of the system ocean-atmosphere at microwaves (in the millimeter and centimeter range of wavelengths) and infrareds (in the window of relative transparency 8–12 μm). These characteristics computed for various levels of observations used in practice (satellite, aircraft, and vessel) were compared with the surface vertical turbulent fluxes of sensible, latent, and total heat. A search of spectral intervals providing most close correlations of radiation characteristics and heat fluxes over various time scales (mesometeorological, synoptic, seasonal, and intra-annual) was considered as a separate task. The models of the system ocean-atmosphere were constructed taking into account accessible oceanographic and meteorological data required for computation of the radiation characteristics.
