Retrieval of nonlinear spectral information from ocean sunglint

Retrieval of nonlinear spectral information from ocean sunglint

In this thesis we develop an inversion procedure which allows the retrieval of nonlinear characteristics of the ocean wave surface from observations of specularly reflected visible solar radiation, or sunglint. Knowledge of the higher order statistical properties of the wave surface enables us to ga...
