Abstract :
For oceanography and meteorology it is important to develop a remote sensing technique that can provide information about processes taking place in the active ocean layer, including those that produce the decisive influence on the atmospheric state. Although mm-wave radiometry is traditionally used mainly for atmospheric studies, it could be effectively applied in oceanographic research. This paper describes the advanced airborne multispectral mm-wave imagine technique for remote sensing of the ocean-atmosphere system. The possibility for diagnostics of the oceanic and atmospheric processes with the sea surface microwave emission is discussed
