Air Survey of Sand Deposits by Spectral Luminance

Air Survey of Sand Deposits by Spectral Luminance by Mariya A. Romanova.

This book gives an account of a method of determining the type composition of sandy deposits from the air by the nature of their reflection of radiant energy. The measured spectral luminance of a rock outcrop rela­ ti ve to the luminance of a standard is the basic property considered in this method....
