Discovering the Ocean from Space: The unique applications of satellite oceanography
The remote sensing of oceans from space has developed rapidly since 1978 when the first dedicated ocean viewing sensors were launched. In 1991 the first European Space Agency remote sensing satellite carried sensors primarily for the ocean, heralding the widespread use of satellite data by oceanographers. In the mid 1990s the US/French TOPEX-Poseidon mission revolutionised the performance of satellite altimetry and since 1997 NASA’s SeaWiFS mission has delivered operational measurements of ocean colour.
A thoroughly up-to-date revision of this successful book this text aims to give the professional engineer or graduate student a fully comprehensive yet practical understanding of the principles and technological issues of this major subject.
