Book Description
The Ocean Remote Sensing Laboratory (ORSL) has been studying internal waves using remote sensing techniques employing three different types of observational platforms: ships, aircraft, and spacecraft. Internal waves and their manifestations have been observed using the following techniques: Satellite multispectral scanning imagers (principally in the visible and near-infrared); Radar--both coherent imaging radar and standard meteorological radar (all from aircraft); Hand-held visible photography (from spacecraft, aircraft, and ship; Ship-towed thermistors; and STD and XBT casts.
