Author Shepherd, G. G.
Title Spectral imaging of the atmosphere [electronic resource] / Gordon G. Shepherd.
Publication San Diego, Calif. : Academic Press, c2002.
Material Info. xiv, 324 p. : ill. ; 25 cm.
Series International geophysics series ; v. 82
Summary Note Optical instruments are routinely employed to obtain a wealth of information about the atmosphere, including its composition, temperature, and winds. A bewildering variety of optical instruments have been proposed over the years, making it difficult to decide which instrument should be chosen to make a specific measurement. Spectral Imaging of the Atmosphere traces the historical development of both spectral and imaging methods and places them in a unified framework relevant to observations of the troposphere, stratosphere, mesosphere and thermosphere. The underlying concepts of various measurement methodologies are presented and paired with appropriate applications. A selection of specific spectral imaging instruments, appropriate to illustrate each conceptual type, is described in detail. Shepherd's work provides both scientists and engineers with an in-depth understanding of the fundamental concepts they need to know in order to plan a program of atmospheric measurements. Expected future methods and developments are also presented. Problems designed to test and enhance the reader's understanding of the material are included in each chapter.
Notes Includes bibliographical references (p. 281-296) and indexes.
