Microwave Signatures 2013 provides an international forum for reporting and discussing recent achievements in instrumentation, methodology, and applications in the field of land, ocean, and atmosphere sensing.

Suggested topics

• Theory, physical principles and electromagnetic models
• Microwave observations of the atmosphere (temperature, water vapor, clouds, precipitation, pollutants) and the surface (land use, soil moisture, forest and vegetation, wetlands, snow, ice, permafrost; ocean salinity, temperature, winds)
• Retrieval of atmospheric and surface parameters from remotely sensed data
• Advanced radiometer techniques including interferometric and polarimetric systems
• Advanced radar techniques including PolSAR and PolInSAR
• Combined active/passive instruments and remote sensing
• RFI and spectrum management
• Satellite missions and experimental campaigns
• Small satellites and UAVs for remote sensing
• Climate and global change
