The course will give an overview of electromagnetic radiation and it's interaction with the atmosphere. This includes aspects of radiative balance, atmospheric optics and remote sensing applications.  We will also discuss remote sensing methods for atmospheric research and meteorology from ground, airborne and spaceborne platforms.

1. Theory of electromagnetic radiation

2. Interaction of EM with the atmosphere

3. Remote sensing applications

Physical principles of remote sensing, Rees. 

Atmospheric science. Wallace and Hobbs.

The lecture is a combined format (Vorlesung und Übung). It will be blocked and (depending on enrollment) potentially pooled into two groups depending on the number of students. Expect also to do group work/homework. Parts of the lecture will also be live streamed. All other information will also be communicated via OLAT. On the first lecture date all further organisational items will be discussed.
