            Abstract : 
Some research achievements in satellite remote sensing in Tibetan Plateau are described in this paper. It mainly covers remote sensing of the surface characteristic parameters, remote sensing of vegetation parameters, and remote sensing of snow parameters. Besides those, the problems demanding prompt solution about the applications of satellite data over Tibetan Plateau are given.
