Title:
Refined requirements for quantitative data on atmospheric CO2 and CH4 from GEO
Status:
Closed
Creation Year:
2015
Completion Date:
2017 Q4
Description:

CEOS Member Agencies with interests in CO2- and CH4-measuring GEO missions will sponsor or co-sponsor one or more workshops (and require a written report) to refine the scientific and policy requirements for quantitative data on atmospheric CO2 and CH4 from geostationary Earth orbit.? These meetings should involve the involve the broad, international science and applications communities in advancing the technical foundation and scientific requirements for as well as the societal benefits of future missions to quantify atmospheric CO2 and CH4 from geostationary orbit.

Since about ten years the International Workshop on Measurement of GHGs from Space (IWGGMS) is organized regularly every year). The workshop comprises the postulated action items. There is a growing interest over the years by scientists and agency representatives from the Americas, Asia, and Europe (ESA, NASA, JAXA, CSA, NOAA, CNES, DLR) [IWGGMS-10 at ESA/ESTEC 2014: ~ 200 attendees] representing the science and application community as well. The workshop is organized yearly in turn between the US, Europe and Asia.

Also, leverages existing efforts at various space agencies: e.g., NASA OCO-2 science team, ESAGHG CCI, and other national programs (e.g., CAS, CMA)
