Abstract
The Compact Ocean Wind Vector Radiometer (COWVR) is new type of conical sensor ideal for small satellite implementation. This paper provides an overview of the COWVR sensor, mission and provides perspectives for the future of this technology to enable low-cost sustainable passive microwave observations into the next decade.
