Characterization of the Ionospheric environment at low latitudes, application to Biomass external calibration sites
The Biomass satellite is a polarimetric P-band (435 MHz) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) in a dawn-dusk low-Earth orbit. Its principal objective is to measure biomass content and biomass change in all of Earth’s forests. The mission launch is envisaged around 2024, for a duration of five years.

Total electron content characterization study over Africa and application to BIOMASS mission (TECA)
This study aims to investigate a feasible regional TEC temporal fluctuations product derived from ground-based monitoring stations Western Sub Saharan African region. To assess how the existing ionospheric monitoring capabilities in that region can satisfy related requirements, for a selected science application and for Biomass external calibration.
