Keeping an Eye on Hurricane Isabel
This September, while Hurricane Isabel advanceds toward United States' East Coast, many optical remote-sensing platforms imaged her spiraling swirl of cloud canopy. Scientists interested in ocean processes, however, turned to RADARSAT's C-band SAR instrument to probe beneath Isabel's cloud cover and observe the surface of the Atlantic Ocean directly beneath the hurricane's eye.
At the recent RADARSAT International Network Station's Meeting (hosted by CSA on 25-26 September), fifty-nine SAR users from 16 countries had an opportunity to hear about the status of RADARSAT-1 and the plans for RADARSAT-2
