Abstract :
This paper is an overview of research contributions by the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications of the University of Florence to the use of microwave attenuation measurements for monitoring the atmosphere. The objective is to point out the potential of this kind of measurements in different contexts of ground and spaceborne remote sensing, and to stimulate new research exploitations
