A21C:
Earth System Change from Space: Early Results on EOS to Suomi NPP Data Continuity Products II Posters


Session ID#: 8208

Session Description:
The Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (Suomi NPP) satellite, launched in October 2011, provides the measurement capability to extend many high-quality time series data records that were initiated by earlier NASA Earth Observing System’s (EOS) satellites. Through the development of continuity-specific algorithms that account for instrument differences, Suomi NPP observations will allow scientists to extend a continuous record of satellite data of sufficient quality to detect and quantify global environmental changes.

We are requesting abstracts that address EOS to Suomi NPP product continuity for physical, chemical, biological, or biogeochemical properties of the Earth system, including:

  • Progress on algorithm development for data product continuity and results;
  • Assessments of Earth System change in atmospheric, land, cryospheric, and ocean properties;
  • Fundamental questions, challenges and assessments in the creation of well-calibrated and stable multiyear and multi-satellite Level-1 time series;
  • Development of Level-3 spatial/temporal aggregations required for Earth System Change Model assessment.
