Description:
Researchers use satellite remote sensing of the earth's reflected and emitted radiation as correlated indices of the variables they measure on the ground or within the atmosphere. The Kursk 1991 Experiment (KUREX-91) was conducted to develop capabilities for monitoring global change, and to understand how the earth's land-surface vegetation and atmospheric boundary layer interact. The experiment enabled scientific interactions between the international participants, and comparisons of instruments and data. Intensive ground measurements were coordinated with helicopter, aircraft and satellite data acquisitions.
