This paper investigates the theory of polarimetric passive remote sensing of wind-generated sea surfaces and the potential application of polarimetric radiometry to ocean wind remote sensing. Theoretical polarimetric emission coefficients of smallscale sea surfaces are evaluated using the small perturbation method (SPM). The SPM is derived to second order and applied to the Stokes vectors of thermal emission from random rough dielectric surfaces described by anisotropic directional spectra. To verify the accuracy of the SPM, a Monte Carlo simulation is performed to calculate the Stokes vectors of the emission from the simulated one-dimensional random rough surfaces with a power law spectrum for various observation angles and surface parameters.
