What kind of scattering makes the sky appear blue?
Think about which wavelength is affected the most.
What is Mie Scattering?
Consider what types of particles influence longer wavelengths.
What type of scattering is responsible for the blue color of the sky?
Remember which scattering relates to shorter wavelengths.
True or False: Atmospheric absorption can lead to certain wavelengths being unusable for remote sensing.
Reflect on the interactions between gases and EMR.
How would you design a remote sensing mission considering atmospheric scattering and absorption? Discuss the criteria for choosing wavelengths.
Think about the relationship between wavelength size and scattering impact.
Given a scenario where the atmosphere has high humidity, how will this affect the choice of wavelengths for your remote sensing data collection?
Consider how absorption influences usable wavelengths.
