<b>Radiative Transfer in Coupled Environmental Systems</b> <p>This book discusses radiative transfer in coupled media such as atmosphere-ocean systems with Lambertian as well non-Lambertian refl ecting surfaces at the lower boundary. <p>The spectral range from the ultraviolet to the microwave region of the electromagnetic spectrum is considered, and multi-spectral as well as hyperspectral remote sensing is discussed. Solutions of the forward problem for unpolarized and polarized radiation are discussed in considerable detail, but what makes this book unique is that formulations and solutions of the inverse problem related to such coupled media are covered in a comprehensive and systematic manner. <p>This book teaches the reader how to formulate and solve forward and inverse problems related to coupled media, and gives examples of how to solve concrete problems in environmental remote sensing of coupled atmosphere-surface systems. <p><b>From the contents:</b> <ul><li>Inherent Optical Properties (IOPs)</li> <li>Basic Radiative Transfer Theory</li> <li> Forward Radiative Transfer Modeling </li> <li>The Inverse Problem</li> <li> Applications</li></ul>
