Sea interferometry

Sea interferometry, also known as sea-cliff interferometry, is a form of radio astronomy that uses radio waves reflected off the sea to produce an interference pattern.[1] It is the radio wave analogue to Lloyd's mirror.[2] The technique was invented and exploited in Australia between 1945 and 1948.[3]
