All Carbon Action Items currently under lead of WGCV are under assessment in order to

• align the WGCV work plan adequately
• coordinate with ither CEOS entities
• identify and coordinate with external bodies if needed
• identify dedicated alignment to a specific sub-group if possible
• identify cross-cutting or fundamental items related over the whole WGCV to align with existing WGCV taks (for example: validation metrics) or to implement a cross-cutting task within WGCV and others involved bodies if needed.

Assessment is nearly complete but the consolidation/merging of different input into one work plan is ongoing.

Results: Several action items are fully/partially aligned to ongoing work on sub-group level and to cross-cutting tasks or action items in the WGCV.

Hint: some of action items don't directly translate; some can be combined. An adequate alignment matrix will be provided with the consolidation of the assessment.

See answer to AI 26 and in addition, the definition of uncertainty is usually provided by standard organizations; this is also part of the day-to-day business of WGCV and its sub-group including the link to those organizations. However, it can be formalized per product and sensor, but is not? restricted to Carbon measurements, only. It is a general task holding for each satellite mission product. Please note that not an additional instance shall be created to redefine the mentioned guidelines in order to avoid duplications and ambiguities.
