There are many applications which can take advantage of hyperspectral remote sensing. Atmosphere: water vapor, cloud properties, aerosols. Ecology: chlorophyll, leaf water, cellulose, pigmemts, lignin. Geology: mineral and soil types.
electroplating definition A process whereby a thin coat of metal is applied to a material. The process involves placing the material to be coated in a solution containing ions of the metal and then passing an electric current through the system, which causes the ions to adhere to the material.
A simple example of the electroplating process is the electroplating of copper in which the metal to be plated (copper) is used as the anode and the electrolyte solution contains the ion of the metal to be plated (Cu2+ in this example). Copper goes into solution at the anode as it is plated at the cathode.
