Active sensing encompasses the use of a transmitter and at least one receiver to measure (sense) the transmission or scattering properties of a medium at radio frequencies. In transmission ...
Recent analysis of 2012 airborne radar data NASA collected remotely suggests the data could predict large sinkholes before they occur, such as one that caused evacuations near Bayou Corne, Louisiana.
This chapter covers active sensing of the atmosphere using both ground-based and satellite-borne radars. Owing to the vast expanse of weather, hydrometeors, and atmospheric gases, in situ measurements ...
