Ocean wavesOcean wave data can be obtained from such active microwave probe techniques as monostatic HF and VHF, bistatic HF, HF synthetic aperture radar, altimeters, satellite and airborne synthetic aperture radar, carrier wave or pulsed dual-frequency radars, and coastal surveillance radar. Approaches to texture analysis of ocean wave imagery are discussed, with attention given to transform techniques or spatial frequency analysis, and the analysis of second-order gray level statistics. In addition, recommendations are made for further work on the modulation of short gravity waves by longer waves as a function of wind speed and wave direction, and the derivation of transfer functions for the ocean response of dual-frequency radars.
