About the Book:
Satellite Meteorology is the youngest and fastest growing branch of the science of meteorology. This book traces its fascinating history, describes the current state of art, and envisions its potential and possibilities. The book can serve as a text book for university courses, as a guide for operational meteorologists and as a source of reference for scientists and research workers in atmospheric and environmental sciences, oceanography and remote sensing.
 
The book covers
     *   Interpretation of satellite images
     *   Derivation of atmosphere, ocean and land parameters from satellite
     *   Active meteorological remote sensing
     *   Applications to monsoons and tropical meteorology
     *   Use of satellite data for climate change studies
     *   INSAT and Kalpana satellites
     *   Future space missions
CONTENTS:

1. FUNDAMENTALS, 2. WEATHER SYSTEMS OBSERVED IN SATELLITE IMAGERY, 3. ESTIMATION OF ATMOSPHERE, OCEAN AND LAND PARAMETERS, 4. MEASUREMENT OF PARAMETERS BY ACTIVE SENSORS, 5. SATELLITE INPUTS FOR NUMERICAL MODELLING AND CLIMATE STUDIES, 6. FUTURE SCENARIO

<p>Fourth edition of the book is enlarged to cover the syllabi of all universities. It is structured to cover the principles and practices as recommended in BIS: SP 46:2003 Salient Features - BIS standards are followed throughout the book in first angle projection as recommended and uniform aligned system of dimensioning. - Covers all units systematically and step by step with numerous examples worked out in stages. This enables the student and staff to understand the subject with ease and enthusiasm by self study. - Students invariably find it difficult to follow the chapters on projection of points and lines especially line inclined to both the planes. Special care is taken to explain this in 4 stages of drawing for easy understanding. - All other chapters are also enlarged with more worked examples. - Chapter on AutoCAD is revised to cover more details in making the drawing through AutoCAD.</p>
