  1. Interaction Between Radiation and the Material Prof. Arnon Karnieli The Remote Sensing Laboratory Jacob Blaustein Institute for Desert Research Ben-Gurion University of the Negev Sede-Boker Campus 84990, ISRAEL

  2. Radiation Interaction with a Matter

  3. Transmission • Incident radiation passes through the material without attenuation • Change in the direction of radiation is given by the index of refraction of the material

  4. Refraction and Diffraction Transmitted waves are refracted or diffracted: Refraction occurs when an electromagnetic wave crosses a boundary from one medium to another. A wave entering a medium at an angle will change direction. Diffraction refers to the "bending of waves around an edge" of an object. Diffraction depends on the size of the object relative to the wavelength of the wave.

  5. Index of Refraction 1 2 Index of refraction (n) is the ratio of the speed of light in vacuum relative to the speed of light through the material Snell’s law describes refraction angles:

  6. Absorption - The material is opaque to incident radiation - A portion of EMR is converted to heat (re-radiated)

  7. Reflection Reflectance - Diffuse reflection (rough surface) - Specular reflectance (smooth surface)

  8. Scattering (DIFFUSE)

  9. Radiation Budget Equation

  10. Radiation Interaction with the Atmosphere

  11. Atmosphere Effect on Satellite Image With atmosphere No atmosphere

  12. Atmospheric Gases Nitrogen (N2) - 78%, Oxygen (O2) - 21%, Carbon Dioxide (CO2) - 0.03 %, plus other miscellaneous gases (e.g., H2O).

  13. Aerosol Types and Origin

  14. Atmospheric Absorption

  15. Atmospheric Absorption

  16. Atmospheric Windows and Shutters

  17. Scattering Vs. Absorption

  18. Rules - 1 Rules govern the interaction between energy and the atmospheric media: 1. Since there is an indirect relationship between the energy of the photon and the wavelength, less electronic influence on the atmospheric particles is expecting in long wavelengths. Ep= h*c/ 

  19. Rules - 2 2. The longer the wavelength, the lesser statistical probability for a contact between the radiation and the atmospheric particles.

  20. Scattering Scattering: random re-direction of the radiation ray from parallel orbit to to an omni-direction orbit.
