Itaru Sano

Position
Professor
Laboratory
Environmental Information Science Laboratory
Aerosols, Remote sensing

Understanding of aerosol properties is impotant role in the climate research. The aim of this work is to estimate aerosol properties by remote sensing from space and ground.

MAKI Teruya

Position
Professor
Laboratory
Environmental Microbiology Lab.
Environmental Microbiology, Bioaerosols, Airborne microorganisms, Public health, Climate change

MORIMOTO Takeshi

Position
Professor
Laboratory
Remote Sensing Engineering Laboratory
Atmospheric Electricity, Remote Sensing, Electromagnetic compatibility

We make practical application of remote sensing technologies that measure the nature of objects from a distance using specific properties such as electromagnetic emissions. We also develop equipment and perform observations and analyses on various subjects, such as phenomena that cause disasters to happen, the Earth’s environment, etc.
