CINECA IRIS Institutional Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishIn this study fully polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) measurements are employed for sea oil slick observation. The co-polarised signature is read in terms of sea surface scattering mechanism with and without surface slicks and it is shown to be sensitive to the presence of sea oil slicks. A model, which relates the pedestal of the polarisation signature to the presence of surface slicks, is developed and successfully tested on L-band ALOS-PALSAR, C-band RADARSAT-2 and C-band SIR-C/X- SAR full-polarimetric SAR data. Experiment results show that polarisation signature, and its pedestal height, can be successfully exploited for both observing sea oil slicks and distinguishing them from weak-damping properties look-alikes.

| Abstract: | In this study fully polarimetric synthetic aperture radar (SAR) measurements are employed for sea oil slick observation. The co-polarised signature is read in terms of sea surface scattering mechanism with and without surface slicks and it is shown to be sensitive to the presence of sea oil slicks. A model, which relates the pedestal of the polarisation signature to the presence of surface slicks, is developed and successfully tested on L-band ALOS-PALSAR, C-band RADARSAT-2 and C-band SIR-C/X- SAR full-polarimetric SAR data. Experiment results show that polarisation signature, and its pedestal height, can be successfully exploited for both observing sea oil slicks and distinguishing them from weak-damping properties look-alikes. | |
