Remote Sensing of the Earth's Surface and Atmosphere
The sixty-six papers contained in this volume have been divided into four main chapters. Resource Mapping and Geophysical Surveys using Space Technology features four main areas. Firstly, the potentiality of MAGSAT data reduction to allocate crustal anomaly; secondly, the application of geophysical and geochemical data for mineral exploration; thirdly, the application of gamma-ray survey to locate the source of radioactive materials and lastly the importance of ground truths obtained by conventional geophysical surveys in the interpretation of satellite data. The chapter on Ice and Cloud Motions deduced from Satellite Imagery is in two sections, Cloud Winds - Methods and Accuracies and Ice Motion - Methods and Accuracies. Chapter 3 entitled Weather Analysis and Forecasting-Nowcasting to Extended Range Predictions focusses on the current status and future use of satellite observations in weather analysis and forecasting. Global weather predictions are expected to improve due to improved satellite observations and from the inclusion of small-scale physics supported by finer space and time resolution of the numerical models.
