摘要
In this paper we develop high wind portion of a Geophysical Model Function (GMF) for Scatsat-1 scatterometer measurements. Starting with NSCAT4 GMF the high wind portion has been modifying by utilizing measurements obtained by IWRAP instrument on board of NOAA P3 aircraft within tropical and extratropical cyclones. The A(0) coefficient in NSCAT4 GMF was modeled so its slope is a linear function of a logarithm of wind speed and its first derivative of it equals to zero at saturation wind speed for particular incidence angle and measurements frequency as it was measured by IWRAP. The calibrated measured sigmaO's from Scatsat-1 shows good agreement with the new GMF named NSCAT4.H at the high winds. The respective wind retrievals are higher and much better aligned with ASCAT high winds while the global winds statistic performance of ScatSat-1 winds remained unchanged. The new ScatSat-1 wind products produced by NSCAT4.H GMF has been implemented in NOAA's operational marine forecasting and warning applications and examples are presented here.
