Space and maritime: analysis of requirements in Greece

The Space4Maritime.gr study identified, analysed and prioritised via desk research, interviews and an online survey 118 unique needs of the maritime sector in Greece which could benefit from space infrastructure. It then translated these needs into a list of user requirements.

Assimilation of lidar observations of aerosols for climate modelling and NWP

The objective of the Aeolus/EarthCARE Aerosol Assimilation Studies (A3S) project was to allow assimilation of the Aeolus L2A lidar backscatter data, also paving the way for the assimilation of EarthCARE products. Since the Aeolus and EarthCARE missions were not yet launched at the time of the study, demonstration datasets based on model data (MOCAGE model for the aerosols and the IFS for the clouds) and a one-day dataset based on CALIPSO data (reprocessed at the UV wavelength and with the Aeolus orbit data) was created.

Operational Assimilation of Space-borne Radar and Lidar Cloud Profile Observations for Numerical Weather Prediction

The main objectives of this project were to develop the tools and structure to enable routine EarthCARE radar and lidar observations of clouds to be assimilated in the ECMWF Numerical Weather Prediction model and to prepare for the real-time monitoring of the observations to detect instrument degradation or errors. This required adjustments of assimilation tools, such as the observation operators, observation error definition, quality control, data screening and bias correction.
