Dear All Colleagues:

International workshop on GNSS Remote Sensing for Future Missions and Sciences
August 7-9, 2011, Shanghai, China
http://www.shao.ac.cn/gnss

The Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has been widely used in
navigation, positioning and geoscience applications. Recently, the versatile
refracted, reflected and scattered signals of GNSS have been
successfully demonstrated to sound the atmosphere and ionosphere, ocean, land
surfaces (including soil moisture) and the cryosphere as a new remote sensing
tool. With the further improvement of the next generation multi-frequency GNSS
systems and receivers and new space-based instruments utilizing GNSS reflections
and refractions, new scientific applications of GNSS are expected in various
environment remote sensing fields in the near future.

The international workshop on ?GNSS Remote Sensing for Future Missions and Sciences?
will be a forum for assessing current ability and presenting recent results and
future developments as well as looking for new collaboration opportunities,
joint nanosatellite experiments and missions using GNSS refractometry,
reflectometry and scatterometry, e.g., atmospheric and ionospheric sounding
using ground and space-borne GPS measurements (CHAMP, GRACE, COSMIC, MetOp,
TerraSAR-X, OceanSat-2?), GNSS reflectometry (GNSS-R) in ocean altimetry, and soil
moisture and ice/snow status as well as geohazards monitoring/warning (e.g.,
Hurricane, Typhoon, Tsunami and Earthquake?).

You are welcome to participate in the International Workshop on ?GNSS Remote
Sensing for Future Missions and Sciences?. See you in Shanghai, Aug 7-8, 2011!
