Combining satellite-derived data records of Essential Climate Variable (ECV) holds significant potential for enhancing assessment and understanding of the complex interactions shaping the Earth system.

The European Space Agency has commissioned several cross-ECV projects that exploit the suite of satellite data records developed through the European Space Agency’s Climate Change Initiative. These R&D projects address critical knowledge gaps identified by the international science community (including the World Climate Research Programme, Global Climate Observing System and IPCC) and are of direct relevance to IPCC climate assessments.

ARCFRESH

The Arctic Freshwater Budget (ARCFRESH) project aims to enhance knowledge of Arctic freshwater processes by maximising the use of EO-derived datasets from the ESA Climate Change Initiative
