This paper is devoted to the forward radar propagation over clean and contaminated seas, using Ament model by taking shadowing effect into account. The well-known Rayleigh parameter, which characterizes degree of roughness a corrugated surface for case reflection on rough surface, presented. Then, it extended transmission through layer two interfaces. parameter allows then calculate oil slicks sea surfaces, model. Moreover, improved Numerical results seas are presented, compared that seas.
