Abstract
To improve the accuracy of sea surface wind speed under rain based on data obtained from the U.S. spaceborne fully polarimetric microwave radiometer (WindSat), a wind speed correction model based on a statistical algorithm is constructed. First, the coupled samples from 2003 to 2014 are considered as the training sample set, and the coupled samples from 2015 to 2020 are used as the test sample set. Then, the WindSat sea surface wind speed under rain correction model is constructed. Results show that the WindSat wind speed data is overestimated severely. The higher the wind speed, the larger the wind speed is overestimated. The experimental results reveal that the WindSat wind speed standard deviation of the test samples is 2.6 m/s. However, the wind speed standard deviation decreases to 2.2 m/s after correction.
