Resumo

An account is given of quantitative measurements of the echo obtained from the sea surface with radars operating at wave-lengths of 1.25, 3 and 10 cm under various weather conditions from calm to very rough. The necessary theoretical treatment is given, and a function f(θ), called the scattering coefficient of the surface, is defined.
