The course aims to introduce the principles of remote sensing in general and in particular the methodologies and techniques that can be used for monitoring and studying polar regions. The course will start with the description of available systems from both ground and satellite; then it will introduce, by means of dedicated lectures, specific topics of interest for polar regions. Measurements’ principles and physical interpretation of acquired data will be discussed also by using geophysical models. An overview of retrieval techniques, able to translate remote sensing measurements in observables, and examples on the use of the data for climate studies will be part of the course. The last part of the course will be dedicated to the description of different available data sources and to practical examples of data processing. At the end of the course it is expected that students will be able to use some of these techniques for addressing some of the topics that will be developed along theirs PhD studies.
