The scattering of EM [electromagnetic] energy caused by particles in the atmosphere which are much larger than the wavelengths of the energy.  2, record 1, English, - non%2Dselective%20scattering

Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Non-selective scattering is produced by water droplets, ice fragments or large dust particles which are larger than the radiation wavelength. Such particles directly reflect any incident radiation. When the particles are sufficiently dense they act as an opaque layer between the sensor and the Earth's surface. Cloudy and dust-laden atmospheres cause non-selective scattering in the visible and infrared wavelengths and thus reduce the effectiveness of data in these spectral regions for remote sensing of the Earth's surface.  3, record 1, English, - non%2Dselective%20scattering

La diffusion non sélective présente des caractéristiques très différentes [...] : elle concerne la basse atmosphère, les brouillards à gouttelettes moyennes, mais aussi les solides en poudre sèche; [...] elle renvoie indifféremment toutes les couleurs car elle met en jeu, à très petite échelle, des phénomènes de réflexion et de réfraction.  3, record 1, French, - diffusion%20non%20s%C3%A9lective

In the thermovoltaic detector (for example the thermocouple), a temperature fluctuation of a junction of dissimilar metals results in a generated voltage.  3, record 2, English, - thermovoltaic%20detector

Optical remote sensing makes use of visible, near infrared and short-wave infrared sensors to form images of the earth's surface by detecting the solar radiation reflected from targets on the ground. Different materials reflect and absorb differently at different wavelengths. When solar radiation hits a target surface, it may be transmitted, absorbed or reflected. Different materials reflect and absorb differently at different wavelengths. The reflectance spectrum of a material is a plot of the fraction of radiation reflected as a function of the incident wavelength and serves as a unique signature for the material.  1, record 3, English, - reflectance%20spectrum
