Greenhouse gases CarbonSat EE8 candidate mission

Abstract

Results from the campaign will help to support the justification of CarbonSat spectral and spatial resolution trade-offs, will deliver glint data relevant for CarbonSat glint algorithms development, will allow to scale campaign data to the CarbonSat spatial scale for investigations on intra-pixel heterogeneity, will allow to investigate assumptions and limitations of the XCH 4 proxy approach and will provide show-case data for CarbonSat application on small scales. Details of the campaign implementation are documented in the COMEX campaign implementation plan [RD-4].
