Applications of GNSS Reflectometry for Earth Observation (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783036520667)

Global Navigation Satellite System-Reflectometry (GNSS-R) has proven an effective and very valuable technique that has helped the scientific community to better understand Earth processes. Measuring the forward scattering that occurs when the Global Positioning System (GPS) signals reflect off the surface of the Earth has enabled multiple studies of the ocean, the cryosphere, and the land geophysical phenomena, allowing a better characterization and increasing the global knowledge of our planet. This book brings together a variety of the most up-to-date research on the GNSS-R field, covering multiple and very innovative applications.
