Advances in Remote Sensing Technology and the Three Poles
BücherAngebote / Angebote:
Covers recent advances in remote sensing technology as applied to the so-called Three Poles ? the Arctic, Antarctica, and the Himalayas
Advances in Remote Sensing Technology and the ?Three Poles? explores the developments in satellite remote sensing, geoinformatics, and landscape evolution modeling techniques that have made it possible to trace the harsh effects of climate change on the three poles and attempts to understand the subtle link between climate change and its effects on cryospheric and related processes. The work also addresses the increased resolution of the satellite data that has aided in the quantification of ever-changing landforms and surface processes.
Sample topics covered in the work include:
* Terrestrial net primary production of the Arctic and modeling of Arctic landform evolution
* Glaciers and glacial environments, including a geological, geophysical, and geospatial survey of Himalayan glaciers
* Sea ice dynamics in the Antarctic region under a changing climate, plus the quaternary geology and geomorphology of Antarctica
* Continuous satellite missions, data availability, and the nature of future satellite missions, including scientific data sharing policies in different countries
For postgraduates and researchers working in remote sensing, photogrammetry, and landscape evolution modeling, Advances in Remote Sensing Technology and the Three Poles is a key resource for understanding current technological capabilities in the field along with the latest scientific research that has been conducted in polar areas.
