The significance of the S-193 Skylab experiment using preliminary data evaluationThe Skylab S-193 radiometer/scatterometer/altimeter experiment is described. The spaceborne microwave system acquires simultaneous radiometric brightness temperature and radar backscatter data over land and ocean. Application of the data analysis to the planning of the GEOS-C and SEASAT-A programs, observation of hurricane Ava, and evaluation of the sensor inflight performance are discussed in terms of using operationally the spaceborne microwave sensors for sensing earth resources phenomena.
