Satellite remote sensing for Earth science data has been rapidly
expanding during the last decade. Volume 1 of this two volume
monograph covers missions/sensors, such as Sea-viewing Wide
Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS), Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission
(TRMM), Total Ozone Mapping Spectrometer (TOMS), Atmospheric
Infrared Sounder (AIRS), and Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit
(AMSU). It also discusses the NPOESS and NPP missions. Emphasis was
placed on the recently launched Moderate Resolution Imaging
Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board of both Terra and Aqua. Some key
MODIS science team members were invited to contribute several
chapters. The core of this monograph arose from the workshop for
Earth Science Satellite Remote Sensing held at George Mason
University (GMU) in October 2002. Both volumes are designed to give
scientists and graduate students with limited remote sensing
background a thorough introduction to current and future NASA, NOAA
and other Earth science remote sensing missions.
