Abstract
A high-resolution microwave radar has the ability to resolve the ocean surface large-scale gravity waves or swell and to reveal their various properties (wavelength, velocity and period). Computer analysis and graphics presented in this paper for sea clutter (backscatter), obtained with an I-band high-resolution pulsed radar, illustrate the usefulness of such a radar as an effective tool for the remote sensing of the ocean surface. Such a radar may be mounted on shore, aircraft, ship and other platforms. Also discussed in this paper is how computer graphics can be utilized to support the acceptance of a useful model for the ocean surface.
