英文摘要Recent studies show the promising ability of cross-polarization synthetic aperture radar (SAR) for high-wind-speed monitoring. However, no dual-polarization (dual-pol) geophysical model functions (GMFs) have thus far been established. In this paper, we first address the difference between dual-pol and quad-pol VH radar returns with respect to wind speed and show the necessity of having a VH dual-pol GMF for ScanSAR images, for remote sensing of mesoscale wind processes, such as hurricanes. By collocating VH dual-pol RADARSAT-2 SAR measurements with in situ buoy winds, a VH dual-pol GMF was developed after introducing a denoise procedure to increase the signal-to-noise ratio for SAR measurements. Study results suggest that the VH dual-pol radar returns have a linear monotonic piecewise increasing dependence on wind speed, with decreasing scatter in high winds. Successful application of the GMF to high-wind-speed retrieval for hurricane Gustav in 2008 suggests that VH mode SAR images do not exhibit signal saturation or the speed ambiguity problem that affects copolarization SAR images for high-wind-speed retrieval. This result supports the potential future application of VH dual-pol SAR images to hurricane monitoring.
