Earth Observation of Global Change, 2008 The Role of Satellite Remote Sensing in Monitoring the Global Environment

Langue : Anglais

Coordonnateur : Chuvieco Emilio

Couverture de l’ouvrage Earth Observation of Global Change

Global Change is increasingly considered a critical topic in environmental research. Remote sensing methods provide a useful tool to monitor global variables, since they provide a systematic coverage of the Earth?s surface, at different spatial, spectral and temporal resolutions. This book offers an analysis of the leading missions in global Earth observation, and reviews the main fields in which remote sensing methods are providing vital data for global change studies.

Preface. Contributors.- 1. International efforts on global change research; B. Alonso, F. Valladares.- 2. NASA earth observation satellite missions for global change research; E. Chuvieco, C. Justice.- 3. The role of the European Space Agency in global change observations; O. Arino.- 4. Ozone in the atmosphere; A. Calles, J.L. Casanova. - 5.
