Abstract
This dataset includes satellite synthetic aperture radar images (SAR) that were obtained for the region around the mouth of Mobile Bay during the period April-June 2021. Images were collected to identify the location of oceanographic fronts associated with the outflow plume of Mobile Bay. SAR images show density fronts as regions of increased radar cross-section, i.e. image brightness.
