• GNSS meteorology
ü Space-borne technique - radio occultation (John Le Marshall’s talk in
Session 8)
ü Ground-based technique – national positioning infrastructure (NPI),
e.g. CORS (Witold Rohm’s talk in Session 10)
• GNSS-Reflectometry
ü “Trash for treasure” - signal from noise for soil moisture, wind speed/
direction and wave motion etc.
