Book Description
Several current programs in satellite meteorology at the Air Force Geophysics Laboratory are reviewed. First of all, the use of reflected sunlight at both visible and near infrared frequencies to distinguish snow from clouds is described. Secondly, a technique of compositing pictures of many typhoon cases in order to relate cloud features to typhoon motion is discussed. Finally, the use of visible and infrared imagery to estimate erosion parameters for reentry systems is described. (Author).

Application of Meteorological Satellite Remote Sensing Capabilities to Environmental Research
Author: Vernon J. Zurick
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Meteorological satellites
Languages : en
Pages : 76
Book Description
The imagery data obtained from earth satellites are well known and applied extensively in the meteorological field. Although these applications are well published, considerable effort is required by a researcher to obtain information on the extent and varied uses of meteorological satellite data. This report is a review paper which brings together in one place summaries and examples of present research and applications utilizing meteorological satellite data. Information is presented regarding instrumentation accuracies and data processing capabilities, in addition to citing the particular application. Satellite launch schedules and planned payloads are included. While not exhaustive, this report should provide the researcher with an introduction and quick reference to what is taking place in the dynamic field of sensing of the environment by meteorological satellites.

Remote Sensing Applications in Meteorology and Climatology

Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 480
Book Description
This was the fourth postgraduate summer school on remote sensing to be held in Dundee. These summer schools were originated by, and continue to remain in, the programme of EARSel (European Association of Remote Sensing Laboratories) Working Group 3 on Education and Training in Remote Sensing. The first of these summer schools was held in 1980 on "Remote Sensing in Meteorology, Oceanography and Hydrology". This was followed in 1982 by a more specialised summer school on "Remote Sensing Applications in Marine Science and Technology" which built on the foundation laid in 1980 and then concentrated on the marine applications of remote sensing techniques. The present summer school was another follow-up of the original 1980 summer school but this time concentrating on the atmospheric rather than the marine applications of remote sensing techniques. The 1984 summer school had not specifically involved atmospheric and marine applications but had been involved with the use of remote sensing in the field of civil engineering. This year's summer school was extremely successful. First of all, this was due to our sponsors, for without their very significant material contributions there would have been no summer school. These sponsors included the Scientific Affairs Division of NATO, together with the European Association of Remote Sensing Laboratories, the Council of Europe, the European Space Agency, the German Aerospace Establishment (DFVLR) and the Natural Environment Research Council.
