ARTIFICIAL SATELLITES. METEOROLOGICAL SATELLITES
Journal Title: Present Environment and Sustainable Development - Year 2009, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
The importance of the satellite in various fields of activity has triggered its continous improvement, having as a result the emergence of more and more varied products and the increase of the resolution of other products. Together with the RADAR and LIDAR, the meteorological satellite is one of the most useful means in the activity of the meteorologist. The perspective it gives on the atmosphere above a certain area of the world, be it night or day, or whether the information is for the surface of the Earth or in altitude, allows us to establish the synoptic context in due time and increases the precision of weather feorecasts.

DETERMINING THE PROTECTION AREAS FOR THE MAIN CAPTURES WHICH EXPLOITS THE FREE LEVEL AQUIFER FROM THE SOUTH DOBROGEADETERMINING THE PROTECTION AREAS FOR THE MAIN CAPTURES WHICH EXPLOITS THE FREE LEVEL AQUIFER FROM THE SOUTH DOBROGEA
This paper was elaborated in order to establish the protection zones of the main capture exploiting limestone aquifer stationed in South Dobrogea, Sarmatian age. To achieve this goal, we used the mathematical model...
EVALUATION OF THERMAL COMFORT DEGREE IN CANICULAR DAYS - RECORD FOR THE REPUBLIC OF MOLDOVA’S TERRITORY
It is well known that in order to remove excess heat in an environment, a temperature lower than body temperature, i.e. less than 37 0C is needed. If such modalities of heat removal do not exist, the organism would be ov...
