CIRCAS aims at providing a set of atmospheric (cloud and aerosol) and surface (albedo) products derived from S3A/SLSTR observations retrieved using the same radiative transfer physics and assumptions.The retrieval is based on the CISAR (Combined Inversion of Surface and Atmosphere pRoperties) algorithm. CISAR is an advanced mathematical method developed by Rayference for the joint retrieval …
Enable better exploitation of ESA atmospheric satellite missions by the measurement/provision of improved spectroscopic reference data sets.This project includes two main activities: one on the generation of improved spectroscopy in the SWIR (water vapour, methane and carbon dioxide) and in the UV band (sulfur dioxide) in preparation for the Sentinel 5 Precursor mission and one …
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: European Space Agency (ESA) organises a series of summer schools on Monitoring of the Earth System to promote the exploitation of Earth Observation EO data across disciplines, with a specific focus on their assimilation into Earth System models. The Summer Schools last for two-week and are held in ESA/ESRIN (near Rome, Italy). …
As part of the Scientific Exploitation of Operational Missions (SEOM) programme element, the European Space Agency (ESA) organised an advanced Atmospheric Training Course, co-sponsored by Forschungszentrum Jülich – Institute of Energy and Climate Research, devoted to train the next generation of Earth Observation (EO) scientists to exploit data from ESA and operational EO Missions for …
