Abstract

See full text

To measure salinity and water temperature in a marine surface layer using data obtained by a marine radar, a deviation ΔS' between effect of an ocean wave on received power RSI0′ in a reference time zone and effect of the ocean wave on received power RSIm′ in a measurement time zone is estimated, a deviation Δs′ between effect of the ocean wave on the received power RSI0′ in the reference time zone and effect of the ocean wave on the received power in an electrical conductivity variable time zone is estimated, a regression function f(σ) of a relationship between received power obtained by subtracting the deviation Δs′ from the received power in the electrical conductivity variable time zone and electrical conductivity σ in the electrical conductivity variable time zone is estimated, and a value of electrical conductivity σc in a measurement time zone is estimated, thereby calculating practical salinity.
