Empirical Algorithm for Significant Wave Height Retrieval from Wave Mode Data Provided by the Chinese Satellite Gaofen-3

Gaofen-3 (GF-3), the first Chinese civil C-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR), was successfully launched by the China Academy of Space Technology on 10 August 2016. Among its 12 imaging modes, wave mode is designed to monitor the ocean surface waves over the open ocean. An empirical retrieval algor...
