Sea state and wind speed
Monitoring of sea state and sea surface wind is certainly of fundamental importance for studies on climatology, meteorology, weather forecast, and ocean circulation. However, it has a great relevance also in the framework of maritime surveillance, particularly for navigation safety. In fact, of cour...

Monitoring of sea state and sea surface wind is certainly of fundamental importance for studies on climatology, meteorology, weather forecast, and ocean circulation.
