A C-band Geophysical Model Function for Determining Coastal Wind Speed Using Synthetic Aperture Radar
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A new geophysical model function (GMF), called C_SARMOD2, has been developed to determine coastal wind speed. A total of 3078 RADARSAT-2 and Sentinel-1A VV-polarized SAR images were collocated with in situ buoy measurements, which was used to derive transfer functions and then to validate the wind speed retrievals. The wind speeds retrieved by the proposed C_SARMOD2 model are more similar to buoy measurements with almost no bias and a root mean square error of 1.84 m/s. Two representative quad-and dual-polarization SAR images acquired from coastal regions are used as case studies to examine C_SARMOD2 performances. The case study and statistical validation results suggest that the proposed C_SARMOD2 has the potential to measure coastal wind speeds at sub-kilometer resolutions and also advocate for the necessity of revisiting the methodologies for ocean surface wind speed measurements in coastal areas.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
