In this context, radar systems have gained increasing interest, since they are remote sensing devices capable of providing information about sea waves, currents, tides, bathymetry, and wind. Moreover, radar systems can be designed to perform both large-scale and small-scale monitoring, with different spatial and temporal resolutions, and can be installed on different observation platforms (ship-based, ground-based, airborne, satellite or drones). In this regard, this book aims at engendering a virtual forum for ocean radar researchers, where state-of-the-art methodologies and applications concerning ocean monitoring by means of radar technologies are reviewed and discussed.History of engineering and technologybicsscADCPAlboran Seaartificial neural networkAtlantic Jetaugmented observatorycirculationcloudinesscoastal surface currentscurrent velocity measurementDoppler anomalyflow reversalfrequency band adaptationGibraltarGulf of NaplesHF radarhigh frequency radarhigh-frequency (HF) radar oceanographyhigh-frequency ocean radarhypertrophic ecosysteminterference mitigationintertidal foreshore slopeinversionmarine radarmodified temporal waterline methodmonitoringmonostatic radarnumerical modelocean wave directional spectrumorbital velocitiesquality controlradarradar altimeterradar cross-sectionradar Doppler altimeterremote sensingscumsea state monitoringsea surface currentsea surface currentssea surface temperaturesensitivity experimentsSentinel-1Sentinel-2Sentinel-3shoreline positionsignificant wave heightsoft computingsouth-west Australiaspatial wave fieldssurface currentsswellsynthetic aperture radarTensorFlowtidal variationwave buoywave directional spectrawave fieldwave run-up correctionwaveformsX-band radarHistory of engineering and technologyLudeno Giovanniedt1323477Uttieri MarcoedtLudeno GiovanniothUttieri MarcoothBOOK9910557682503321Radar Technology for Coastal Areas and Open Sea Monitoring3035601UNINA
