Remote sensing offers the potential to broaden the spatial coverage of measurements, surpassing the capabilities of many in-situ networks. Various methods, such as radar, lidar, and satellite-based systems, are consistently employed for the observation and surveillance of the Earth and its atmosphere. This session will delve into all facets of atmospheric remote sensing, encompassing specific methodologies, innovative measurements, and results.
