| Abstract | Microwave backscatter from the ocean surface has long been assumed to be proportional to the spectral density of windwaves at the Bragg-resonant wavelength. Although the spectral density of gravity-capilary waves is primarily a function of wind forcing, interactions with longer waves are also an important factor in wave-wave energy transfer. Thus, the microwave backscatter should be affected by the presence of longer waves as well. Any effort to measure the effects of longer waves on the backscatter, usually referred to as the modulation transfer function, or mtf: should include both direct measurement of the backscatter and direct measurement of the short-wave spectral density. The authors have used microwave and millimeter-wave scatterometers at 10 GHz (X-band), 35 GHz (K/sub /spl alpha// band), and 70 GHz (V band) to measure the backscatter. All three microwave instruments are CW Doppler systems. The X-band scatterometer offsets the Doppler by 400 Hz so both the upwind and downwind peaks can recorded. The remaining systems are I&Q instruments, where the RF signal modulates a 60 MHz carrier wave, and the I&Q are retrieved from the 60 MHz carrier in a separate section. The microwave signals are sampled at 3 kHz using a Data Translation A/D card in a PC, and the data are stored on 8 mm EXABYTE type. The microwave and optical systems were all aligned to view the same spot on the water, at a fetch of 16.5 meters.< |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
