The cryosphere, that region of the world where water is
temporarily or permanently frozen, plays a crucial role on our
planet. Recent developments in remote sensing techniques, and the
acquisition of new data sets, have resulted in significant advances
in our understanding of all components of the cryosphere and its
processes.
This book, based on contributions from 40 leading experts,
offers a comprehensive and authoritative overview of the methods,
techniques and recent advances in applications of remote sensing of
the cryosphere. Examples of the topics covered include:
* snow extent, depth, grain-size and impurities
* surface and subsurface melting
* glaciers
* accumulation over the Greenland and Antarctica ice
sheets
* ice thickness and velocities
* gravimetric measurements from space
* sea, lake and river ice
* frozen ground and permafrost
* fieldwork activities
* recent and future cryosphere-oriented missions and
experiments
All figures are in color and provide an excellent visual
accompaniment to the technical and scientific aspect of the
book.
Readership: Senior undergraduates, Masters and PhD
Students, PostDocs and Researchers in cryosphere science and remote
sensing.
Remote Sensing of the Cryosphere is the significant first
volume in the new Cryosphere Science Series. This new
series comprises volumes that are at the cutting edge of new
research, or provide focussed interdisciplinary reviews of key
aspects of the science.
