Pages 4397-4402 | Published online: 21 Sep 2007
 

Abstract

Ship wakes and aircraft contrails were identified in the IRS‐P4 OCM data. The ship wake signatures were analysed for the observations made in shipping corridors of the Persian Gulf on 3 June 1999 and in the of the Arabian Sea on 17 February 2000. While the aircraft contrails were studied with OCM data on 17 November 1999 off Mumbai, India and 18 February 2002 in the Arabian Sea. The study of wakes and trails helped discriminating ships and aircraft location at the sea.
