| Abstract | So far a number of models have been developed to estimate the emission of the sea surface at L-band as a function of different key physical variables, such as the Sea Surface Temperature (SST), the Sea Surface Salinity (SSS) and the roughness as well as the presence of sea foam, but none has demonstrated to clearly perform better than the others. An important contribution in that direction will be given by the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission in the next future, when global and frequent measurements of the ocean will be available and, jointly with in-situ measurements collected by buoys or vessels, will permit further studies. To rehearse and optimally prepare the future analyses, two field experiments (the Advanced L-BAnd Transmission and Reflection Observations of the Sea Surface — ALBATROSS 2008 and 2009 -) have been carried out in one of the SMOS Calibration and Validation sites: The North Atlantic Subtropical Gyre. Brightness temperature measurements, using L-band real aperture radiometers, jointly with the reflected GPS signal, and in-situ measurements of SSS, SST, wind speed, and wave spectrum were collected during these experiments. The measurements have been analyzed and the first results of this analysis are presented. After an introductory section, the campaign set-up and the measurement procedure is described in section II, while the data processing is explained in section III. Finally, section IV is devoted to the presentation of the preliminary results of the study. |

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.
