| الوصف: | The Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) mission has generated several new ocean surface data products. Because of its high overpass rate and ability to measure surface wind speeds through weather, these data products are typically higher temporal resolution than traditional satellite tropical cyclone (TC) data products. However, the nature of the Global Navigation Satellite Systems reflectometry (GNSS-R) signal, which is essentially a single pixelwide measurement along the CYGNSS specular point (SP) track on the ground, necessitates aggregating the wind speed data over a period of time to accurately characterize TCs in terms of intensity and structure. The standard CYGNSS level 3 (L3) wind products are averaged over 1 h, which typically is not sufficient to produce an accurate characterization. A new L3 storm-centric gridded (SCG) wind speed product is presented here. It has been developed to improve upon the standard L3 algorithm for the purpose of providing better characterization of TC wind fields over their storm life cycle. This paper describes the L3 SCG algorithm, provides examples of L3 SCG wind fields, and discusses the potential uses and limitations of the new data product. |
