1 Airborne Remote Sensing for Ocean and Coastal Applications Ben Reineman, Luc Lenain, Nick Statom, David Castel, Ken Melville Scripps Institution of Oceanography 17 October, 2011 Address for correspondence: Ben Reineman: Ken Melville (PI): 5th Coastal Altimetry Workshop - San Diego, CA Collaborator: Leonel Romero (UC Santa Barbara) Acknowledgement: Daniel Bedenko (UCSD/SIO)
2 Introduction Airborne lidar altimetry as a means for in situ calibration/validation of satellite coastal altimetry Compared to buoy / tide gauge, large spatial coverage, captures variability Mapping of sea surface wave field included Digital Elevation Model (DEM) of coast, land targets Airborne remote sensing as a tool for investigating phenomena not captured by satellites Able to capture small scale spatial and temporal variability Short notice availability - capture weather phenomena SST fronts, unstable features Support of real-time forecasting during extreme events Assimilate into model analysis and forecasts of extreme events / coastal environments 17 October th Coastal Altimetry Workshop - San Diego, CA 2
3 Outline Airborne remote sensing instrumentation review, description Coastal DEM examples from airborne scanning lidar Sample sea surface topographic survey, wavenumber spectra of surface waves Sample IR and visible imagery of sea surface temperature front Altimetry comparison of airborne lidar, Jason-1 pass 17 October th Coastal Altimetry Workshop - San Diego, CA 3
