This book covers the fundamental principles of measuring oceans from space, and also contains state-of-the-art developments in data analysis and interpretation and in sensors. Completely new will be material covering advances in oceanography that have grown out of remote sensing, including some of the global applications of the data. The variety of applications of remotely sensed data to ocean science has grown significantly and new areas of science are emerging to exploit the gobal datasets being recovered by satellites, particularly in relation to climate and climate change, basin-scale, air-sea interaction processes (e.g. El Nino) and the modelling, forecasting and prediction of the ocean.
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area! Find out more on how to host your own Frontiers Research Topic or contribute to one as an author by contacting the Frontiers Editorial Office: frontiersin.org/about/contact.
Em sua 2ª edição, revisada e ampliada, Oceanografia por Satélites foi escrito por um grupo experiente de oceanógrafos brasileiros e estrangeiros. Descreve as novas tecnologias empregadas para o estudo do meio ambiente marinho a partir de dados de sensoriamento remoto e as vantagens e limitações dessas tecnologias comparadas a técnicas mais convencionais de observação dos oceanos. O livro é extremamente importante por ser uma revisão atualizada de como os dados de sensoriamento remoto estão impulsionando as ciências marinhas e mudando as perspectivas atuais da Oceanografia. Aplicações incluem o estudo de variáveis físicas que controlam o clima e o tempo marinhos, correntes, ...
Since its creation in 1884, Engineering Index has covered virtually every major engineering innovation from around the world. It serves as the historical record of virtually every major engineering innovation of the 20th century. Recent content is a vital resource for current awareness, new production information, technological forecasting and competitive intelligence. The world?s most comprehensive interdisciplinary engineering database, Engineering Index contains over 10.7 million records. Each year, over 500,000 new abstracts are added from over 5,000 scholarly journals, trade magazines, and conference proceedings.

Esta obra científica vem felizmente preencher a carência de materiais didáticos para os cursos de graduação e pós-graduação em meteorologia e áreas afins, sobre os sistemas de tempo que atuam no Brasil e as influências das variações climáticas. Na primeira parte do livro, aprofundam-se os principais sistemas meteorológicos que atuam na América do Sul e no Brasil, descrevendo fenômenos enriquecidos por modelos e registros. O clima das regiões Norte, Nordeste, Centro-Oeste, Sudeste e Sul, compõe a segunda parte, e a terceira, tem por objeto a variabilidade climática que acirra enchentes e secas. O aquecimento global, as mudanças climáticas e os cenários sobre o meio ambie...
