Ground-Based Microwave Radiometry and Remote Sensing (eBook, ePUB)

Methods and Applications

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Ground-based radiometers are currently operated in research labs around the globe and are also used as routine measurement tools for water vapor and temperature profiling. This reference provides a comprehensive picture of ground-based radiometry, starting with the basic principles. It provides information on ground-based instrumentation, retrieval techniques, and temperature structure. It also covers temperature profiling and water vapor radiometry. In addition, it provides retrieval algorithms using MATLAB, worked examples of derived products, and polar atmosphere cases.

Autorenporträt

Pranab Kumar Karmakar is currently pursuing research work principally in the area of modeling of integrated water vapor and liquid water in the ambient atmosphere. He is involved in research and teaching at the post-graduate level at the Institute of Radiophysics and Electronics, University of Calcutta in India. Dr. Karmakar published noteworthy outcomes of his research of tropical locations in different international and national journals of repute. All these are culminated into a book entitled Microwave Propagation and Remote Sensing: Atmospheric Influences with Models and Applications published by CRC Press in 2012.
