  • Abstract
    This paper analytically calculates the infrared reflectivity of sea surfaces with one surface reflection by taking shadowing effect into account. The cross-polarization effect is studied. It is shown that the co-polarization reflectivity is dominant for large zenith angles θ. Cross-polarizations do not occur along the horizontal direction of the global specular reflection direction.
