The very-high-resolution radiometer on the NOAA-2 (National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration) satellite has recently obtained imagery in the visible channel containing sunglint over a major portion of the coastal waters off the eastern seaboard of the United States. An abrupt change in surface roughness has been observed at the shoreward edge of the Gulf Stream Current from Florida to Cape Hatteras that results from the opposition of waves propagating against the flow of the Gulf Stream.
美国国家海洋和大气管理局(NOAA)卫星上的甚高分辨率辐射计最近在可见光波段获取了美国东海岸沿海大部分海域的镜面反射图像。在从佛罗里达到哈特拉斯角的墨西哥湾流的近岸边缘,观测到由于波浪与墨西哥湾流流向相反而导致的表面粗糙度的突然变化。
