Title :
Passive and Active Microwave Sensors in Satellites for Remote Sensing of the Earth
fDate :
April 30 1979-May 2 1979
Abstract :
Microwave sensors which can operate day and night, and through clear and adverse weather have very high potential in inferring oceanic wind field, precipitation, and sea ice. Both passive radiometry and active RADARs can be operated from satellites.
