09.30.2019

Dear colleagues,

It is a pleasure announce that our Coordinator, Dr. Pasquale Gaudio, has been invited as "Gust Editor" by the journal "SENSORS" - MDPI for the Special Issue:

"Laser Based Remote Sensors for Environmental Science: Apparatus, Measurements and Analysis Techniques”

Here the letter of Dr. Gaudio:

"

Dear Colleagues，

Laser-based remote sensing techniques are very promising methodologies. They have become important, sometimes primary, devices in industrial, urban, environmental, safety, and security applications. Concerning the safety and security field, remote sensing monitoring plays a crucial role in providing fast and preventive alarms in the case of intentional (terrorism, war, etc.) or accidental (natural, accident) diffusions of dangerous substances, such chemicals or pathogens. Moreover, remote sensing approaches may avoid people working directly in threatening areas and it may help understand the dangers and to take appropriate countermeasures.

Pollution monitoring is also fundamental to preserve and guarantee a good quality of life, especially in industrial and high-traffic urban areas.

Although many remote laser-based techniques have been developed, such as Lidar, Dial, Laser-Induced Fluorescence (LIF), and Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), these instruments are usually large, heavy, and expensive, leading to underutilization of these devices. Moreover, these techniques usually require complicated data analysis, since they work in very variable and unpredictable environments.

This Special Issue refers to any research in the field of laser-based remote sensing applied to environmental, safety, and security fields. It will accept both original research and review articles about not only the techniques, but also innovative experimental apparatus or devices, and new data analysis techniques.

Dr. Pasqualino Gaudio
