Ground & Satellite Based Remote Sensing of the Sea Surface

Design of novel analysis techniques for the high resolution (10s – 100s of metres) mapping of waves, currents and bathymetry and other oceanographic effects using data from coastal X-Band Radar systems. Also the use of such data in long term monitoring of such sites.

Use of satellite data for intertidal mapping.

Application of low cost GNSS systems for remote sensing of the sea surface.
