Methods for visual interpretation of multispectral space images are described. The interpreter's work is divided into stages, the most important of which are: analysis of images in different spectral bands; detection of uncategorized sets of features on the images in different bands; and comparison of band-specific images for the purpose of discriminating these sets and identifying individual features. The research was carried out using imagery of the Monchegorsk region, where the northern vegetation is sustaining significant damage from industrial pollution.

The results of microwave remote sensing of the sea surface in the Atlantic Ocean by Almaz-1 spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR), as well as radiometers carried aboard the Akademik Ioffe scientific research ship, are presented. The observations were made when there was considerable perturbation of the ocean surface by heavy rainfall. Measurements of the intensity of radiothermal emission on the basis of multifrequency remote sensing data made it possible to obtain estimates of the intensity of rain, traces of which appeared on the radar image in the form of dark spots, indicating a decrease in the strength of the signal return. The physical mechanisms of the impact of rain on surface waves are discussed.

A generalized “coefficient of agricultural pressure on the soil,” derived from resource-level indices and related to the J. Kostrowicki typological model, is proposed and is related to soil mapping units. The general patterns of its spatial distribution within European Russia, based on experiments with maps, are confirmed by data in the literature.

The authors examine the theoretical and methodological basis for the compilation, from space imagery, of complex maps depicting land use, settlement, and types of hazards posed to the environment by different economic activities. Map content and level of detail vary by scale, and the types of information conveyed at different scales (1:100,000; 1:500,000; and 1:1,000,000) are described on the basis of specific mapping projects in the Urals, Kola Peninsula, and Russian Far East.

The authors outline a procedure for the mapping of soil geochemical anomalies surrounding a gas condensate deposit in upland East Siberia. An end product is a map showing areas in which matter is biologically cycled in different ways and at different intensities, as reflected in the dominance of different combinations of chemical elements in the soil. The paper explores the relationship between these geochemical regions and (a) related natural regions (vegetation, geomorphologic-geologic) and (b) types of human impact (e.g., fires, oil-gas drilling, pipeline construction). The methods employed are compared with previous methodologies of geochemical mapping—e.g., of Perel'man.

A statistical analysis of cloud fields was made on the basis of observational data recorded by Meteor-series satellites during the period 1971-1990. The mean monthly and annual total cloud quantities over all the continents and oceans are cited, accompanied by a discussion of their seasonal variations, trend, and correlations with other meteorological phenomena. A qualitative physical explanation of the observed regularities of cloud-field variations is given on the basis of the vorticity equation.

The results of the study of the effective scattering area (ESA) of agricultural lands on drained peat bogs in the Ryazan' section of the Meshchera Lowland during different observation periods are presented. An experimental radar survey was made during spring-summer 1986-1987 by means of a side-looking airborne radar (SLAR) at a wavelength of 2.5 cm. In the processing of radar survey materials, the water surface of inland water bodies was used as a reference level. Invariant calibration curves and comparable quantitative estimates of the relative effective scattering areas for different agricultural features (open soils, pastures, sown fields of grain, and cultivated crops) were obtained for five survey times.

The paper describes an experiment in mapping the emissivity of surface features (e.g., vegetation, bare soil, water, snow, and ice) of diverse surfaces in the Lake Baykal region using IR radiation thermometers carried on board a helicopter. Nine different thermal (emissivity) structures were identified from mid-summer overflights, which are linked to corresponding vegetation/landscape assemblages and levels and types of human landscape modification. Emissivity contrasts among water surfaces, sparse and dense forest associations, and various steppe and alpine landscapes are described.
