Abstract: Issues arising in the application of high-resolution, high-precision spectroscopy to remote sensing are discussed in the context of deriving surface pressure from absorption in the O2 A-band. This application requires ...

Abstract: Airborne experiments to assess the feasibility of remote sensing surface pressure from a space platform are described. The data are high-resolution spectra in the O2 A band (759?771 nm) of sunlight reflected from the sea ...
