• W1543521103 abstract "Marine pollution is a matter of public concern because of its strong influence on various human activities such as fisheries and tourism, as well as for consequences on health. In this context, particular attention is being paid to pollution phenomena on the sea surface, where even a small amount of substance can spread over a large area in the form of a thin film. A great aid in the effort of monitoring sea surface pollution comes from remote sensing techniques. Satellite – borne instruments are able to monitor wide areas and to detect the presence of surface slicks; optical instrument can do this by evaluating the change in spectral components of visible and infrared radiation, but they are unable to work during the night or in bad weather (clouds) conditions. For this reason, active microwave instruments play a key role in sea surface observation because electromagnetic waves freely propagate in atmosphere and in clouds. The aim of this chapter is to explain the usefulness of the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) as a tool for sea surface monitoring, especially to detect pollution. This happens because a number of pollutant substances produce huge areas of surface film which reduce water surface roughness and therefore they can be detected by the Normalized Radar CrossSection (NRCS) on SAR images where they appear as dark areas. Theoretical basis and practical applications will be described by reviewing literature, in order to give a comprehensive view about fundamental concept and the latest advances. Theoretical and experimental studies, carried out over the last decades, demonstrate that the presence of a monomolecular film is able to modify the spectra of short sea waves. The damping ratio, e.g. the ratio between the spectra with clean and slick covered water, shows a maximum in the frequency domain, strongly dependent on slick composition and thickness. Sea surface roughness is due to the short waves (wavelength up to a few tenths of centimetres) appearing on sea surface due to external forcing such as wind. The dynamics of those short waves (wavelength, velocity, etc.) is driven by the physical characteristics of sea water such as density and surface tension. The presence of a surface film modifies the surface tension and therefore causes a noticeable damping of centimetric waves: the slick covered area appears “flatter” than the surrounding sea. 21" @default.
