    Description / Table of Contents: Chapter 1. The surface elevation probability distribution of nonlinear random waves -- Chapter 2. Statistical distribution sea surface slopes -- Chapter 3. On the dispersion relation of sea waves -- Chapter 4. Modeling the shape of the pulse reflected from the sea surface -- Chapter 5. Effect of long surface waves on the Bregg scattering of microwave -- Chapter 6. Impact of physical and chemical characteristics of the sea water on Bregg scattering of the radio waves -- Chapter 7. Measurements of statistical moments of sea surface slopes based on satellite sensing data -- Chapter 8. Contrast of optical images at the slick-ripple interface -- Chapter 9. Variability of the ocean-atmosphere interface as a light reflecting surface -- Chapter 10. Physical limitations on the accuracy of remote detection of wind speed over the sea.
    Abstract: This book considers the formation of the signal reflected from the sea surface when sensing in the radio and optical range. Currently, remote sensing from space is the main source of information about the processes taking place in the atmosphere and ocean. The correct interpretation of remote sensing data requires detailed information about the rough surface that forms the reflected signal. The first three chapters describe the statistical and spatial-temporal characteristics of the sea surface, focusing on the effects associated with the nonlinearity of sea surface waves. The analysis makes extensive use of data obtained by the authors on a stationary oceanographic platform located on the Black sea. In the next seven chapters, the authors analyze how the nonlinearity of waves affects the formation of a signal reflected from the sea surface. This book is geared for advanced level research in the general subject area of remote sensing and modeling as they apply to the coastal marine environment. It is of value to scientists and engineers involved in the development of methods and instruments of remote sensing, analysis and interpretation of data. It is useful for students who have decided to devote themselves to the study of the oceans.

    Abstract: This book offers the scientific basis for the ample evaluation of badland management in India and some surrounding regions. It examines the processes operating in the headwaters and main channels of ephemeral rivers in lateritic environments of India. In particular, the book covers a range of vital topics in the areas of gully erosion and water to soil erosion at lateritic uplands regions of India and other regions in Asia. It explores the probable gully erosion modeling through Remote Sensing & GIS Techniques. It is divided into three units. Unit I deals with the introduction of badland, types of badland and the process of badland formation. Unit II is devoted to a description of quantitative measurements. Unit III deals with the control and management processes related to various issues from different regions. As such this book serves as a reference book for research activities in this area. It is an efficient guide for aspiring researchers in applied geography, explaining advanced techniques to help students recognize both simple and complex concepts.

    Description / Table of Contents: Introduction -- Multi-beam bathymetry technology -- Airborne LiDAR bathymetry technolog -- Side scan sonar and sub-bottom profiler detection technology -- Navigation and positioning technology -- Water level measurement and vertical datum conversion technology -- DTM and Seafloor mapping technology -- The delimitation of continental shelf based on seafloor graphics -- The application of submarine geomorphology -- The application of automatic recognition of seabed target -- The application of seafloor classification -- The application of research on international seabed resources.
    Abstract: This book focuses on the survey technology, post-processing technology, mapping technology and scientific application of the submarine topography and geomorphology in detail. High-resolution submarine geomorphology is a frontier branch of Marine Geology and marine surveying and mapping, which provides a direct basis to study the seabed surface, to understand the tectonic movement and submarine evolution. In the past two decades, high-resolution submarine geomorphology with high-precision multi-beam echo sounding, side-scan sonar and shallow bottom profile as the major techniques, is developing very quickly and is one of the frontiers of international marine science and technology. These high techniques promote the traditional submarine geomorphology to high-resolution and quantitative research. At present, high-resolution submarine geomorphology is widely used in the delimitation of the continental shelf and the international seabed resources survey, marine engineering and marine military applications. In order to facilitate readers to understand how to acquire and apply scientific research based on landform data, it highlights the combination of theory, technology and scientific application. This book is useful as a reference for professional and technical personnel in related fields and also as a textbook for both graduate and undergraduate students as well.
