Main research directions

  • Detection of sea surface temperature.
  • Estimation of circulation parameters of sea surface.
  • Identification of the basic oceanographic objects - eddies, fronts, currents, etc.
  • Information support of research vessels for prompting on oceanic objects.
  • Monitoring of tropical cyclones-typhoons.

           

Principal results

  • Round the clock the Complex of three separate antennas receives digital information from the meteorological satellites working with frequencies nearby 1.7 GHz and 8 GHz.
  • Daily reception, processing, delivery and archiving of data from polar-orbital satellites NOAA, FY-1D, AQUA/MODIS and geostationary satellites FY-2C, MTSAT-1R is being carried out. (The Archive of the digital satellite information is held since 1993.)
  • Original methods and software for atmospheric correction, cloud filtration, calculation and construction of instant and composite (lasting many days) fields and charts of various geophysical parameters have been developed.
