    Remote geochemical analysis offers a powerful tool to study the elemental and mineralogical composition of our planet from its interior through to its atmosphere and to explore our solar system. Such studies have become possible because of major advances in sensor technology. Remote Geochemical Analysis fully covers both techniques and key applications. Chapters have been contributed by experts in their respective fields and describe a variety of remote sensing tools and their use in gaining an understanding of compositional properties. This book offers students as well as researchers a unique single source of information about the acquisition of compositional information using advanced sensors.

    • The only up-to-date overview of the available techniques for compositional analysis from afar
    • Chapters contain details of real applications as well as the technical and theoretical background
