TY - JOUR PY - 1977// TI - Ocean wave patterns under hurricane gloria: observation with an airborne synthetic-aperture radar JO - Science A1 - Elachi, C. A1 - Thompson, T. W. A1 - King, D. SP - 609 EP - 610 VL - 198 IS - 4317 N2 - Surface imagery of ocean waves under Hurricane Gloria (September 1976) has been obtained with an airborne synthetic-aperture imaging radar. Observations were obtained over most of the area within a radius of 150 kilometers around the center of the eye. These direct observations made it possible to derive the wave patterns in the region around a hurricane eye.
