  • Abstract
    We investigate small-scale features using SAR imagery, including sharp frontal interfaces, slicks of artificial and natural origin, and wakes of surface ships. Collection of the ground truth data helps in the understanding of the physical mechanisms behind the patterns visible in the image.
