Sea surface wind speed and wave data are presently available from various sensors in flight on several satellites. The wind speed and direction are available from the wind scatterometer of ERS-1. The wind speed can also be inferred from altimeters on board ERS-1 and TOPEX POSEIDON, and from the Special Microwave Imager on the satellites of the Defense Meteorological Space Program. These data are merged and used to investigate sea surface wind and wave field structure. One application study presently in progress, concerning the Mistral, is presented.
