Questions and Answers

What is the primary limitation of using IR sensors for sea surface temperature retrieval?

  • Inability to detect microwave frequencies
  • Inferior radiometric performance
  • Low spatial and temporal resolution
  • Limited coverage due to inability to see through clouds (correct)

What is a disadvantage of using microwave sensors for sea surface temperature retrieval?

  • Superior radiometric performance
  • Coarser spatial resolution (correct)
