This book reviews historic developments and recent technological advancements in GEO and polar orbiting meteorological satellites. It explores the evolution of these remote sensing technologies and their capabilities to monitor short- and long-term changes in weather patterns in response to climate change. Satellites developed by various countries, such as U.S. meteorological satellites, EUMETSAT, and Russian, Chinese, Japanese and Indian satellite platforms are reviewed. This book also discusses international efforts to coordinate meteorological remote sensing data collection and sharing. This title provides a ready and quick reference for information about meteorological satellites. It serves as a useful tool for a broad audience that includes students, academics, private consultants, engineers, scientists, and teachers.SpringerBriefs in Space Development,2191-8171Aerospace engineeringAstronauticsMeteorologyRemote sensingAerospace Technology and Astronauticshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/T17050Meteorologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/312000Remote Sensing/Photogrammetryhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/J13010Aerospace engineering.Astronautics.Meteorology.Remote sensing.Aerospace Technology and Astronautics.Meteorology.Remote Sensing/Photogrammetry.145Tan Su-Yinauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut791322MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910300382603321Meteorological Satellite Systems1768684UNINA
