Polar sea ice characteristics and the timing of seasonal transitions are important parameters in the study of polar processes and climate changes.
The Ku-band dual-polarized backscatter signatures of ocean surfaces are described in this article with the airborne scatterometer measurements collected in the Hurricane Ocean Wind Experiment in September 1997.
SeaWinds-1B is an spaceborne instrument, under design at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory, to accurately measure the speed and direction of ocean surface winds at high resolutions.

MEASURE-Jupiter is a mission concept for the first wave of new missions to explore the giant planets in the post-Galileo era. This paper addresses the feasibility of low-cost, focused science missions to explore Jupiter based on the science information returned by the Galileo mission.
This paper presents results for numerical calculations only of remote sensing studies of the land, ocean, and atmosphere as affected by aerosol loading in the atmosphere.
We are engaged in modeling the scattering and emitting properties of irregular particles with the goal of understanding the composition and structure of cometary dust particles.
The Astrometry Network of the International Halley Watch (IHW) has organized and coordinated more than 300 astrometric observers from 47 countries in an effort to provide for accurate positional information on comets Halley and Giacobini-Zinner. This information is being used to constantly update the existing orbits and ephemerides for the various flight projects to these two comets and also for the other ground-based observers within the IHW organization. The astrometric data, as well as the resultant orbits and ephemerides, are being distributed to all requesting observers and they will be cataloged within the general IHW archive system.
