Environmental Remote Sensing in Egypt Paperback / softback

Edited by Salwa F. Elbeih, Abdelazim M. Negm, Andrey Kostianoy

Part of the Springer Geophysics series

Paperback / softback

Description

This book presents a comprehensive selection of applications employed in environmental remote sensing using optical and thermal infrared satellite-sensors aiming to map natural resources, crops, groundwater, surface water, aquatic ecosystem, land degradation, air quality, renewable energy, regional resources, and climate-related geophysical processes.

The technologies presented in this book also include satellite images, space-borne radar sensors focusing on the most versatile one, data from synthetic aperture radar (SAR), scatterometers and radar altimeters in Egypt.

This volume also presents a thorough explanation of the remote sensing role showing physical fundamentals of the climate change phenomenon including gas emissions, and the impact on resources concerning the sustainable development of Egypt.

Besides, the book includes an analysis of oil pollution in both Mediterranean and Red Seas   This book is intended for environmental policymakers working in Egypt as well as scientists working with remote sensing technologies in highly populated arid regions.
