AN INFRARED REMOTE SENSING TECHNIQUE FOR IMPROVED OIL SLICK CLASSIFICATION

Design, fabrication, and evaluation of an inexpensive, relatively simple system are described. Emission and reflected radiation spectrograms are presented and discussed, and inherent problems with the present system are explored. A final section deals with the rationale for greatly increasing the overall sensitivity and hence effectiveness of this measurement system.
