Gap Analysis for Integrated Atmospheric ECV CLImate Monitoring (GAIA-CLIM)

Start date: Mar 1, 2015, End date: Feb 28, 2018,

There is a recognised need for establishing sound methods for the characterisation of satellite-based Earth Observation (EO) data by surface-based and sub-orbital measurement platforms - spanning Atmosphere, Ocean and Land observations and the entire radiance spectrum. Robust EO instrument characterisation is about significantly more than simply where and when a given set of EO and ground-based / ...

Quality Assurance for Essential Climate Variables (QA4ECV)

Start date: Sep 27, 2013, End date: Jan 1, 2018,

Policy makers are increasingly relying on Earth Observation (EO) data to make decisions on mitigating and adapting to climate change. These decisions need to be 'evidence-based' and this requires complete confidence in EO-derived products. Although EO data is plentiful, it is rare to have reliable, traceable and understandable quality information. The situation is often further confused because va ...

European Reanalysis of the Global Climate System (ERA-CLIM2)

Start date: Nov 11, 2013, End date: Jan 1, 2018,

Production of an extended climate reanalysis of the 20th century, with consistent descriptions of the global atmosphere, ocean, land-surface, cryosphere, and the carbon cycle. Production of a new reanalysis of the satellite era with near-real time data updates for climate monitoring. Research and development in various aspects of coupled data assimilation to improve the use of observations in futu ...

COordinating Earth observation data validation for RE-analysis for CLIMAte ServiceS (CORE-CLIMAX)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

...nsuring that the results of the re-analysis process get appropriately reflected into updates of the ECVs. Together with intercomparing different reanalyses, CORE-CLIMAX will contribute to establish a European truly coupled gridded re-analysis which incorporates full exchanges and interactions between atmosphere, ocean, land, including the hydrological cycle.Specific objectives:1 Coordinate with G ...

European Re-Analysis of global CLIMate observations (ERA-CLIM)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,

"ERA-CLIM will develop observational datasets suitable for global climate studies, with a focus on the past 100 years. These datasets will include atmospheric, oceanic, and terrestrial observations from a variety of sources, high-resolution global reanalysis products of the observations, and associated data quality information needed for climate applications. The project will use existing climate ...

...e in Africa. The overall aim is to improve the exploitation of EO data for coastal and oceanic monitoring towards an Africa-wide observation system (GOOS-Africa). It will provide an interface between European GMES-related core and downstream services and R&D projects (notably MyOcean) and African initiatives (e.g. AMESD) with the emerging GMES-Africa initiative. It will also provide further links ...
