Thermal remote sensing of active volcanoes: a user's manual

---

This book encapsulates over 100 years of research developments, forming a comprehensive manual for measurements of earth surface temperatures and heat fluxes. With a particular focus on volcanic hot spots, the book explores methodologies and principles used with satellite, radiometer and thermal-camera data. It presents traditional applications using satellite-and ground-based sensors as well as modern applications that have evolved for use with hand-held thermal cameras, and is fully illustrated with case studies, data bases, and worked examples. Chapter topics include techniques for thermal mixture modeling and heat flux derivation, and methods for data collection, mapping, and time-series generation. Appendices covering specific sensors and their deployment, plusman extensive reference list, provide the reader with a nigorous bacjground. Online supplements present additional specific notes on areas of sensor application and data processing. This book is an invaluable resource for academic researcher and graduate student in the fields of thermal remote sensing, volcanology, geophysics and planetary students, It is also of interest to enaone involved in the fields of Earth and space science.
