The 5th International Electronic Conference on Remote Sensing

Dear Colleagues,

The 5^th International Electronic Conference on Remote Sensing with a focus on “Advances in experimental and theoretical studies of terrestrial atmosphere and underlying surface” will be held on 7-21 November 2023. The main aim of the conference is to present recent advances in experimental and theoretical studies of atmosphere (trace gases, atmospheric aerosol, cloudiness, precipitation, temperature, and pressure) and underlying surface with a focus on cryosphere, which has nonlinear impacts on climate change trends and the warming of our planet. The conference will promote the use of remote sensing and geospatial information technology and make it possible to exchange innovative approaches in the area of remote sensing.

This is an excellent opportunity for remote sensing scientists to communicate with their colleagues, learn from each other, and share ideas and results. It will be possible to deliver live and pre-recorded presentations simultaneously.

The main topics and sessions of the conference cover:

S1. Remote sensing systems and techniques
S1-1. Ground-based, airborne, shipborne, and spaceborne remote sensing systems
S1-2. Hyperspectral remote sensing
S1-3. Lidar remote sensing
S1-4. Radar remote sensing
S1-5. Passive remote sensing

S2. Remote sensing: physical fundamentals and inverse theory
S2-1. Electromagnetic light scattering
S2-2. Radiative transfer
S2-3. Inverse theory

S3. Remote sensing applications
S3-1. Oceanic remote sensing
S3-2. Vegetation remote sensing
S3-3. Remote sensing of land use and land cover change
S3-4. Remote sensing of snow and ice
S3-5. Remote sensing of precipitation
S3-6. Aerosol remote sensing
S3-7. Cloud remote sensing
S3-8. Remote sensing of atmospheric trace gases

All accepted abstracts will be published on the website of the conference. You are required to submit an abstract (250–500-word limit). Please see the abstract guidelines at "Instructions for Authors".

After the conference, there will be a possibility to submit selected papers to the related journal Remote Sensing (Impact Factor (2021), 5.349, 5-Year Impact Factor (2021): 5.786; Top Open Access Journal in Remote Sensing) with a 20% discount on the APCs.

On behalf of the Organizing Committee, I cordially invite you to join us at the 5^th International Electronic Conference on “Advances in experimental and theoretical studies of terrestrial atmosphere and underlying surface”.
