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 & technologybicsscHF radarmonitoringcirculationAtlantic Jetflow reversalGibraltarAlboran SeaX-band radartidal variationmodified temporal waterline methodshoreline positionintertidal foreshore slopewave run-up correctioncurrent velocity measurementhigh-frequency (HF) radar oceanographyremote sensingquality controlcoastal surface currentssoft computingradarsensitivity experimentsnumerical modelartificial neural networkinversionradar cross-sectionmonostatic radarocean wave directional spectrumTensorFlowwave directional spectraspatial wave fieldsADCPwave buoysignificant wave heightmarine radarsea state monitoringscumhypertrophic ecosystemSentinel-1Sentinel-2Sentinel-3cloudinesshigh-frequency ocean radarinterference mitigationfrequency band adaptationhigh frequency radarsea surface temperaturesurface currentssouth-west Australiasynthetic aperture radarDoppler anomalysea surface currentsGulf of Naplesaugmented observatorywave fieldradar Doppler altimeterorbital velocitieswaveformsswellradar altimetersea surface currentHistory of engineering & technologyLudeno Giovanniedt1323477Uttieri MarcoedtLudeno GiovanniothUttieri MarcoothBOOK9910557682503321Radar Technology for Coastal Areas and Open Sea Monitoring3035601UNINA
