Impact of rain on wave retrieval from Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar images in tropical cyclones

The main objective of our work was to investigate the impact of rain on wave observations from C-band (~5.3 GHz) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) in tropical cyclones. In this study, 10 Sentinel-1 SAR images were available from the Satellite Hurricane Observation Campaign, which were taken under cyclonic conditions during the 2016 hurricane season. The third-generation wave model, known as Simulating WAves Nearshore (SWAN) (version 41.31), was used to simulate the wave fields corresponding to these Sentinel-1 SAR images. In addition, rainfall data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission satellite passing over the spatial coverage of the Sentinel-1 SAR images were collected. The simulated results were validated against significant wave heights (SWHs) from the Jason-2 altimeter and European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts data, revealing a root mean square error (RMSE) of ~0.5 m with a 0.25 scatter index. Winds retrieved from the VH-polarized Sentinel-1 SAR images using the Sentinel-1 Extra Wide-swath Mode Wind Speed Retrieval Model after Noise Removal were taken as prior information for wave retrieval. It was discovered that rain did indeed affect the SAR wave retrieval, as evidenced by the 3.21-m RMSE of SWHs between the SAR images and the SWAN model, which was obtained for the ~1000 match-ups with raindrops. The raindrops dampened the wave retrieval when the rain rate was < ~5 mm/hr; however, they enhanced wave retrieval for higher rain rates. It was also found that the portion of the rain-induced ring wave with a wave number > 0.05 rad/m (~125 m wavelength) was clearly observed in the SAR-derived wave spectra.     

酚醛树脂基纳米多孔材料的制备及结构调控

酚醛树脂基纳米多孔材料（Phenolic Resin-based Nanoporous Materials，PNM）是满足新一代航天飞行器轻质、高效隔热需求的新型热防护材料，传统制备方法中需使用超临界干燥技术，制备周期长、成本高。本研究通过两步法，即先合成线性酚醛树脂，再进行溶胶-凝胶的方法，实现了常压干燥PNM的制备。系统研究了固化剂含量、固化温度和固化时间对材料结构的影响和调控作用，分析了影响材料收缩率和热稳定性的因素。结果表明，PNM的微观纳米结构的变化会影响材料干燥后的收缩率，制备大颗粒、大孔径的微观结构更有利于降低材料的收缩率。而PNM的热稳定性主要受交联反应过程形成的化学结构的影响，通过优化固化剂的含量可提高PNM的热稳定性。当固化剂含量为10%，固化温度提高至150℃，固化时间延长至48 h的条件下，获得的PNM有最高的热稳定性（900℃下的残碳率为54.2%）、最发达的孔结构（比表面积为264.0 m²/g、孔容为2.67 cm³/g、平均孔径为40.0 nm）和最小的收缩率（0%）。此PNM制备方法简单、性能优异，在未来航天飞行器上有广阔的应用前景。

调频连续波SAR改进的频率尺度变换算法(英文)

本文提出了一种调频连续波SAR改进的频率尺度变换算法。调频连续波SAR在运动过程中持续不断地发射和接收信号,这种运动导致了回波信号的伸缩,对波前重建产生了严重的影响。推导了回波信号模型,给出了信号的距离-多普勒域表达式,分析了由于天线不断运动而导致的相位变化与方位向频率之间的关系。改进的频率尺度变换算法补偿了这种相位变化,实现了目标的精确成像,仿真结果表明了分析的正确性和算法的有效性。

Stellar infrared astronomy with EDISON

In this review the IR emission from circumstellar material is discussed, both of ionized gas and dust grains, and the astrophysical information that can be extracted from such observations. Some emphasis is placed on the possibilities of stellar IR astronomy using a large space-borne telescope, especially with respect to the much better spatial and spectral resolution of such a telescope compared to the current generation of ground-based and space IR telescopes.
