Remote Sensing: Marine and Coastal Applications

Synopsis: Shows applications of remote sensing in marine science with an emphasis on coastal zone processes. Outlines the industrial, scientific and environmental topics of importance in this zone, and the potential contribution to their understanding that can be made by the use of remote sensing techniques. A resumé of the satellites, their sensors and the areas in which they can be used to complement more traditional methods of monitoring is supplemented by case studies. These examples demonstrate remote sensing digital processing and image enhancement techniques that can be used to highlight characteristics and information of interest to coastal and marine scientists.
