Better understanding of earth environment via satellite
The features of this programme lie in the points academic research from a new view point and common basic research to support it.
As academic research from a new view point problems, in boundary area, which have not been studied well by ordinary independent science fields such as atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere, will be the target of this research programme. For example, boundary system area between atmosphere and hydrosphere: Remote Sensing of air sea interaction system, boundary area between atmosphere and geosphere remote sensing of evaporation and exhalation - snow and rainfall interaction system, and boundary area between hydrosphere and geosphere: Remote Sensing of water circulation and soil moisture are selected. And technology and algorithm for higher order utilization of satellite data fro the global point of view are investigated.
As common basic technologies essential to the researches on boundary areas between atmosphere and hydrosphere, atmosphere and geosphere and hydrosphere and geosphere, research on measurement and information processing is promoted. As for measurement, microwave remote sensing was selected, because it is expected to play an important role in the future earth observation for each of atmosphere, hydrosphere and geosphere, but so far its basic research has not been studies well in Japan. And as another common basic technology, advanced information processing, which is essential in promote researches on atmosphere, hydrosphere, and geosphere but also not been well developed, was picked up.
Through discussion on how to promote effective and characteristic well organized research programme with close co-operation between sciences and engineering in both hardware and software sides, the following five planned researches were selected.
