abstract = "The artificial satellite AQUA was launched in 2002 in California,
United States, as part of a program designed by NASA (National
Aeronautics and Space Administration) whose main task was to
monitor the water cycle on Earth''s surface and in the lower
layers of the atmosphere . With this program, NASA aimed to
understand the processes of change in the climate globally, in
order to propose together with relevant bodies, policies and
actions in order to reduce symptomatic of global warming,
depletion of the ozone layer, greenhouse effect and other adverse
weather events to human life. The satellite Aquia has six special
sensors: the AMSR-E (Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer for
EOS), AMSU-A (Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A), AIRS
(Atmospheric InfraRed Sounder), HSB (Humidity Sounder for Brazil),
CERES (Clouds and the Earth''s Radiant Energy System) MODIS
(MODIS). These sensors capture specific information on rainfall,
evaporation and water cycles, and also measure simultaneously the
changes in ocean currents and the interference of water reservoirs
in global climate. In this way, the AQUA is configured as an
important geotechnology to the service of man in relation to the
monitoring of weather events and environmental preservation.",
