Abstract :
Statistical methods for studying the spatial structure of microwave emission observed by means of satellite remote sensing methods over oceanic surfaces are developed. The main goal of the work is to ensure the reliable estimation of statistical parameters that describe distribution functions of brightness temperatures observed in the ocean-atmosphere system from satellites. As a consequence it should allow one to enhance the reliability and potency of remote sensing applications
