abstract This project is aimed to assess if and with what accuracy the radial sea surface currents can be evaluated using the CosmoSkymed SAR images. The radial sea surface current us will be computed from the map of the Doppler shift fD obtained from level 0 SCS CosmoSkyMED images. The region of interest is the northern Adriatic Sea and the Venice lagoon (45° 10'–45° 40' N, 12° 00'–13° 00' E). This test area includes part of the northern Adriatic Sea and of the Venice Lagoon: the main focus will be on the three lagoon inlets because here the sea currents reach the highest values of the Mediterranean Sea.
