Summary
The
measurement of accurate and complete data sets on the state of surface, ocean,
ice and atmosphere is an essential part of environmental physics. A broad range
of instruments and techniques is available for these measurements, including
both in-situ techniques and remote sensing methods from the ground, ship,
aircraft, balloon or satellite platforms.
In this
lecture, relevant measurement techniques used in environmental physics and
chemistry will be presented, and the underlying physical and chemical concepts
will be discussed. The emphasis will be on methods employed in current research
projects at the Institute of Environmental Physics. This includes remote
sensing of atmospheric trace gases using optical absorption spectroscopy,
Fourier transform spectroscopy, measurements of currents in the ocean using
acoustic measurements, laboratory measurements of ozone and NO2,
electromagnetic ice thickness measurements, trajectory modelling, chemical kinetics
modelling and the analysis of satellite measurements using image processing
techniques.
In parallel
to the lecture, practical training on experiments covering physical basics of
environmental measurement techniques, applications to atmospheric measurements
and the analysis of satellite data will take place.
