| Résumé : |
An introduction to ocean remote sensing describes the use of satellite data in the retrieval of oceanic physical and biological properties. It gives many examples of the kinds of data that can be acquired and describes their oceanographic applications. It also describes the numerous national and international programs in satellite oceanography that have been initiated during the past two decades, and reviews current and future programs up to 2019. the book covers radioactive transfer, ocean surface properties, satellite orbits, instruments and methods, visible remote sensing of biological properties, infrared sea surface temperature retrieval, passive microwave measurements, scatter meter wind retrieval, altimetry, and SAR. New and proposed techniques, such as Polari metric passive microwave radiometers and SARs, inter aerometric radar altimetry and sea surface salinity retrieval are also discussed. |
