Constellation of Satellites for Atmospheric Composition and Air Quality
Constellation of Satellites for Atmospheric Composition and Air Quality
Session ID#: 157712
Session Description:
Description: Space agencies are entering into a new era of environment monitoring with Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (SNPP) and Sentinel-5 Precursor (S5P) reaching key milestones of ten and five years of operations, respectively. Even as the use of OMPS/SNPP and TROPOMI/S5P in various applications is expanding, synergistic retrievals using a combination of satellites and sensors are being researched by the scientific community. Exploitation of satellite-to-satellite intercalibration and validation, algorithm development to combine ultraviolet, visible, shortwave infrared, and infrared measurements to enhance the information content of trace gases and aerosol properties is taking place. We invite presentations on algorithms, validation, and applications with a synergy between various instruments such as CrIS-TROPOMI, CrIS-OMPS, VIIRS-TROPOMI, GEMS-TROPOMI, OMPS-GEMS for atmospheric composition and air quality including emissions monitoring of greenhouse gases.
