Abstract: | The results of shipboard measurements of the modulation characteristics of 3.2 cm radar signals scattered by a rough sea surface
at low grazing angles are reported. The experiments were carried out from on-board a drifting research vessel in the Atlantic
trade wind zone at wind speeds of 7–10 m s−1 and coinciding directions of the wind and waves. Azimuthal isotropy of the modulation spectra was observed. It is emphasized
that the ‘sea surface-scattered signal’ modified modulation transfer function is somewhat larger for horizontal polarization
than for vertical polarization.
