How can atmospheric variables such as temperature, wind, rain and ozone be measured by satellites? How are these measurements taken and what has been learned since the first measurements in the 1970s?

What data are currently available and what data are expected in the future? The second volume of this encyclopedic book presents each field of application - meteorology, atmospheric composition and climate - with its main aims as well as the specific areas which can be addressed through the use of satellite remote sensing.

This book presents the satellite products used for operational purposes as well as those that allow for the advancement of scientific knowledge. The instruments that are at their origin are described, as well as the processing, delivery times and the knowledge they provide. This book is completed by a glossary and appendices with a list of supporting instruments already in use.
