Abstract: The reflections of Global Navigation Satellite systems such as GPS can be used to retrieve geophysical parameters. A promising application is to use them for the sea surface roughness-induced corrections in the brightness temperature to retrieve the Sea Surface Salinity. A tandem campaign to obtain simultaneous radiometer and reflectometer data has been conducted on the North-West coast of the Gran Canaria Island (Canary Islands, Spain). The first results after processing the GNSS-R data are presented.
