Abstract: Dielectric characteristics (viz., permittivity, dielectric loss) of saline ocean water in microwave frequency bands are influenced primarily by its salinity and temperature. This study brings out some of the anomalous behaviours of these characteristics through numerical computations using empirical relations, for some of the frequency bands used in microwave remote sensing. Unique characteristics of saline water at lower frequency like 1.4 GHz (frequency being used in the 'Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity' satellite mission) have been highlighted. © 2010 CAFET-INNOVA TECHNICAL SOCIETY.
