This book demonstrates capabilities of passive microwave technique for enhanced observations of oceans. It outlines benefits and limitations of such methods and also establishes better knowledge of physical principles of microwave diagnostics. This work represents not only an introduction and complete description of the main principles of ocean microwave radiometry and imagery but also provides guidance for further experimental studies. It shows how advanced microwave technology has become an efficient tool for diagnostics of ocean phenomena and disturbances.
