  • Abstract
    The questions about the correct SAR imaging theory of ocean surface waves and the best inversion algorithm for retrieving two-dimensional ocean wave spectra from SAR image spectra has haunted remote sensing scientists for the last 25 years. Here a short historical review is presented.
