Abstract
The Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS) mission provides ocean wind speed measurements using GNSS reflectometry observations from eight space-borne receivers. The various CYGNSS wind products including conventional CYGNSS L2 winds, NOAA L2 winds, and TES (Trailing Edge Slope) winds are currently available. These wind products were compared to the ECMWF model winds using 8 hours data on June 8, 2018. The initial results showed that all retrievals showed some correlations with the ECMWF model winds, but the bias and the standard deviation are quite different among the methods. Comparison of three products for larger data set will be evaluated and presented in detail.
