This new edition introduces the fundamentals of passive microwave remote sensing of oceans, including the physical principles of microwave radiometry, novel observational data, their interpretation, and applications. It not only demonstrates and examines the recent advantages and state of the art of microwave data but also provides guidance for explaining complex ocean studies and advanced applications. All chapters are thoroughly updated with detailed analysis of spacebased microwave missions, and a new chapter on spacebased microwave radiometer experiments has been added. This book discusses the power of microwave remote sensing as an efficient tool for diagnostics of ocean phenomena in research and education. Features New to this Edition: * Includes a new chapter and additional data, images, illustrations, and references. * Uses ocean microwave data, acquired from different platforms, to illustrate different methods of analysis and interpretation. * Updates information on recent and important satellite missions dedicated to microwave remote sensing of oceans. * Offers more detailed analysis of multiband microwave data and images. * Provides examples of microwave data that cover different ocean environmental phenomena and hydrophysical fields, including global and local ocean features. * Presents additional material on advanced applications, including detection capabilities. This book is intended for postgraduate students and professionals working in fields related to remote sensing, geography, oceanography, civil, environmental, and geotechnical engineering.
