  abstract = {{S}urface marine wind data base front {ERS}-1 scatterometer has been processed to define the characteristic seasonal distribution of wind-stress curl throughout the southwestern {I}ndian {O}cean between {J}anuary and {D}ecember 1994. {A} compact model to obtain satellite-derived wind-stress curl fields on smaller scales than previously available is proposed and evaluated. {T}he results indicate the strong capability of the {ERS}-1 scatterometer to monitor wind-driven variations in the mesoscale ocean patterns.},
