From Laboratory Spectroscopy to Remotely Sensed Spectra of Terrestrial Ecosystems

Remote sensing of the environment is covered through spectroscopic analysis of soil and vegetation response during active and passive sensing. Fundamental aspects of spectroscopic methods for environmental applications are given. Applications range from remote sensing of saline soils, soil moisture...
