Major natural hazards have sparked growing public concern worldwide. This book provides new information on Typhoon Impact and Crisis Management using satellite remote sensing technology, linking the natural sciences and social sciences in typhoon studies. It examines remote sensing observations of typhoons (hurricanes), typhoon impacts on the environment, typhoon impacts on marine ecosystems, typhoon impacts and global changes, typhoon (hurricane) impacts on economics, and crisis management for typhoon (hurricane) disasters.
This comprehensive account delves into the fundamental concepts, theories, methods, and applications of ocean satellite remote sensing. It synthesizes new ideas and theories while addressing key research topics related to the oceanic manifestations of global changes as observed from space. The book details various research methods for analyzing and modeling these global changes, supported by numerous examples from the world's oceans. It explores the changing oceans through Global and Regional Observations, Natural Hazards, and Coastal Environment issues, all viewed through the lens of Satellite Observation Systems. Additionally, it highlights advancements in satellite remote sensing technology and emphasizes the importance of international cooperation in this emerging field.
