  1. Gulf Stream Front and Internal Waves in SAR TerraSAR-X. Credit DLR.

  2. Hydrodynamics and Remote Sensing of Far Wakes of Ships Alex Soloviev, Mikhail Gilman, Silvia Matt, Atsushi Fujimura, Jenny Fenton, and Chris Maingot Project Goal Explorer of the Seas Wake camera Mathematical model of far wakes of ships attuned to remote sensing techniques. (Funding $1,249,712 from US Federal Government.) Field Experiment Camera installation on the Explorer of the Seas http:// oceanlab.rsmas.miami.edu/ Wake image Sonar measurements of ship wake from small boat Laboratory Experiment The tank is equipped with state-of-the-art technology. We study the effect of surfactants on small wind waves which are important scatterers in remote sensing. The wave tank offers a controlled environment and advanced measuring techniques. Numerical Modeling Side view of the Air-Sea Interaction Tank (ASIST) at UM/RSMAS Photographic image of the wake of Explorer of the Seas Ship wake model with CFD software FLUENT http://www.rsmas.miami.edu/groups/asist/ Contact email address: soloviev@nova.edu

  3. Simultaneous Observation of Ship Wake from Synthetic Aperture Radar Satellite and Sonar Moving Ship TerraSAR-X image (HH): 9 Jun 08 23:13 UTC. Ship: Eurus Paris (length148 m, speed 11.3 kts)

  4. Internal Wave Soliton in the Straits of Florida Bottom mounted acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) mooring Satellite synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image COSMOSkyMed

  5. Simulation of Internal Wave Soliton Thermal stratification is similar to that observed on the South Florida shelf Domain length - 2 km Domain width - 1 km Depth - 250 m Horizontal resolution - 10 m Vertical resolution - 2 m (increased resolution in thermocline)

  6. Internal wave in thermocline-side view For animation click on image

  7. Internal wave signature in surface velocity and magnetic fields and in SAR (top view) t = 2000 s Surface velocity field nT 0.3 0 -0.3 • Induced magnetic field (bx)1 cm below the surface (magneto statics approach) Radar backscatter intensity map (proxy for SAR) M4S radar imaging model (Dr. Roland Romeiser, UM RSMAS) Combining satellite radar imagery with data from magnetometers offers a valuable new prospect in maritime sensing for Navy applications.
