SCATSAT's scientific payload consists of Ocean
Scatterometer 2, or OSCAT-2, an enhanced replacement for the OSCAT instrument aboard OceanSat-2.
(2014) also show a positive effect when either or both the ASCAT data sets are assimilated together with Indian Oceansat-2
scatterometer (OSCAT) data.
5) consisted of the laser light signals from the
scatterometer, which is very sensitive to large molecule weight polymers.
Coastal upwelling and mesoscale winds are studied using daily 25 km NOAA SST data [47], 25 km J-OFURO reanalysis [48], satellite
scatterometer measurements from QuikSCAT and ASCAT, and 4 km Meteosat infrared imagery.
In our ongoing work we are currently validating this theory against in-situ C- band
scatterometer measurements collected over natural snow-covered sea ice in the Canadian Arctic and experimentally grown sea ice at the Sea Ice Environmental Research Facility (SERF) at the University of Manitoba.
To build up a more complete picture across the whole peninsula, the team also analysed satellite data collected by an instrument called a
scatterometer. Using microwave reflections from the ice sheet surface, the
scatterometer was able to detect the presence of meltwater.
