This book contains papers by well renowned scientists from all over world --- including Eastern Europe --- which were presented during a specialist meeting on microwave radiometry and its applications to remote sensing of the atmosphere and the surface of the earth held in Florence, Italy, in March 1988.
The book is divided into five sections, some of which contain review papers which summarize the most recent advances in the field. The sections are:
-- Microwave radiometry of the earth's surface
-- Dielectric properties of natural materials
-- Microwave radiometry of the atmosphere
-- Synergism of passive and active microwave remote sensors
-- Technology of passive microwave systems
This book will be of interest to engineers and scientists working in the field of microwave remote sensing and its applications.
