| Abstract | The concept of the modulation transfer function between the microwave backscatter from meter-sized areas of the sea surface and the long dominant-wave slope is being expanded to include the role of wind fluctuations at the surface. In the experimental results from the SAXON-FPN experiment, X-band radar measurements have been supplemented by simultaneous wind measurements performed by an ultrasonic anemometer positioned 5 meters above the surface. This study is to examine the correlation between the low frequency wind fluctuations and the sizeable low frequency signal in the corresponding radar spectrum that has long been observed but not yet explained. The results of the joint radar and wind data analysis show coherences between the atmospheric turbulence and the RCS fluctuations. In the frequency range where the ocean wave spectrum is dominant (>0.1 Hz) the coherence function for the atmospheric turbulence displays a minor, but still visible role. In the frequency range below 0.01 Hz, the authors find the highest consistent coherences. This finding implies that the 2 cm Bragg waves at a given location appears to be less affected by the local instantaneous wind and stress; it is only correlated with the wind on scales of 10's of minutes. |

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.
