ESA showcase how satellite data are helping to count national carbon emissions
Call opens for post-doctoral research proposals to improve and exploit ESA CCI data products
Shaun Quegan explains why satellites are important for assessing global forest biomass and his hopes for COP27
The CCI aims to realise the full potential of the long-term global Earth Observation archives that ESA has established over the past 30 years, as a significant and timely contribution to the ECV databases required by UNFCCC.
The climate of a region is its predominant weather conditions, averaged over many years
Satellites observing Earth provide a clear picture of changes across the entire planet, measuring and monitoring our vast oceans, land, atmosphere and areas that are difficult to reach, such as the polar regions.
It is unequivocal that human influence has warmed the atmosphere, ocean & land. Widespread and rapid changes have occurred (IPCC AR6, 2022)
CCI uses climate knowledge and technical capabilities from across ESA Member States to support research and development.
