Motivation (continuous)
Before above work, firstly,we should distinguish convective process SAR images from open ocean surface SAR images.

The MODIS imagesuggests that convectiondid occur from the morphology and that the SAR image area appears to be a transition zone between open and closed convection.

WRF Summary
verify that the SAR imaging area was influenced by cyclonic processes. After the passage of the vigorous cyclone, a high pressure ridge gradually developed and dominated this area;
upward and downward air motions at the bottom of atmosphere;
exclude rain effects.

MCC Polarimetric Characters summary
mesoscale cellular convection(MCC) is with higher
modulation depths of HH and VV polarizations, the co-
polarization phase difference, average alpha angle,
and entropy. However, the contrast in anisotropy is
not as obvious as that of the other three parameters.
![Page 21: TU4.T10.5.ppt](https://reader033.fdocuments.in/reader033/viewer/2022051818/549a7bddb4795905078b459e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• What is the difference in the polarimetric characteristics between MCC and open ocean surface?
• To compare the polarimetric characteristics of MCC with those of the ocean surface, 641 open ocean surface quad-polarization RS-2 SAR images collocated with 52 NDBC buoys were analyzed.

Polarimetric charateristics of open ocean
The distributions do not show any obvious regular pattern and the actual variations are small, resulting from variations in these four parameters. The range is limited between 0o to 6 o.

Polarimetric charateristics of open ocean
H clearly tends to increase with increasing incidence angles, for each of the three sea state parameters. There are a few exceptional cases, however.When wind speeds are larger than 2 m/s, the largest H value is less than 0.55; the maximum value for H is ~ 0.68.

Except for the maximum in , when wind speed is about 2 m/s, the variation in is from 3o to 25o, and taking its standard deviation into account, the variation of is from 2o to 27o , which is smaller than that of MCC.

Conclusions
The collated data and WRF model results verified that the signals in SAR images are MCC;
The polarimetric characteristics of MCC are different with those of open ocean surface;
Polarimetric parameters show good potential to identify atmospheric convection phenomena from open ocean surface SAR images.
