Description
Summary:Two L-band Radiometric Systems for Earth remote sensing from space which are under development in Russia are described. The main goals of the planned experiments are improvement of radiophysical methods for Earth remote sensing, investigation of soil moisture variations in global and regional scales and sea surface salinity estimations. Especial interest has analogous instruments for ground truth measurements. Some results of experiments with ground based L-band radiometer are presented.
