The Satellite As Microscope

Scorer (mathematics and environmental technology, U. of London) presents a systematic and detailed interpretation of the reflectivity of different kinds of clouds and air pollution, deduces from their appearance in various satellite wavelengths several basic facts about their particulate composition, and shows how the method can be used to detect and identify air pollution in difficult and unexpected cases. A companion to his Environmental aerodynamics (1978) and Cloud investigation by satellite (1985). Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
