Correlation spectroscopy techniques for the regional and global measurements of air pollution
Abstract
The remote sensing approach to air quality monitoring is reviewed, and optical correlation techniques applied to remote sensing of gaseous atmospheric constituents are discussed. Correlation spectroscopy is described, and results of studies using the method for aircraft and balloon measurements of sulfur and nitrogen dioxide are presented. The application of airborne and satellite mounted remote sensors to atmospheric monitoring is also discussed.
