Meteosat Image of the week: World Environment Day Watching our Earth from 36,000km. Sentinel Image of the week: Tropical Cyclone Ewiniar Tropical Cyclone Ewiniar brought high winds, heavy rainfall and flooding to Luzon, the largest island in the Philippines, which caused casualties, power outages and property damage. News 23 May 2024 Agreement facilitates Africa’s access to European weather satellite data EUMETSAT and AUC signed an agreement to further strengthen cooperation on Earth observation. Sentinel Image of the week: Cyclone Ialy Watching our Earth from space. Science Assimilation of satellite sounder profiles in NWP The motivation for the study was to maximise the amount of information conveyed to the model, particularly regarding water-vapour, and to minimise the computational load during the assimilation pro Meteosat Image of the week: Saharan dust from space Desert dust particles are lifted into the atmosphere by gusts of surface wind and can be transported and deposited thousands of kilometres away. Science Upgrading Aeolus aerosol observational capabilities towards improving air quality and NWP models ADD-CROSS assesses the impact of cross-channel assimilation on air quality and numerical weather prediction (NWP). Sentinel Image of the week: intriguing cloud patterns near the Cape Verde islands The cloud patterns are known as von Kármán vortices and are formed over the ocean when islands disrupt the wind flow. The strength of the wind affects the patterns of the swirls. Satellites Image of the week: phytoplankton bloom from space The bloom is most likely caused by coccolithophores (cyan colour) and other phytoplankton species. Phytoplankton play a key role in marine ecosystems as the basis of the food chain. Meteosat Image of the week: Earth view for Earth Day Watching our Earth from 36,000km. Science Literature Review: Miniaturized Concepts for Spaceborne Hyperspectral Earth Observation News 22 April 2024 European State of the Climate 2023 European State of the Climate 2023 details unwelcome records for heatwaves and extreme weather events Science Contribution to the NOAA OSSE to estimate EPS-Aeolus impact on NWP AboutThe purpose of this study is to help estimate the individual impacts of current Aeolus observations and future EPS-Aeolus-like observations on NWP. Science Mesoscale Improved Data Assimilations of Scatterometer winds (MIDAS) The MIDAS project studied the use of scatterometer wind data within mesoscale Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. Weather Image of the week: Global weather from space Watching our Earth from 36,000km. News 15 April 2024 The European Weather Cloud needs you! Research and development call currently open Sentinel Image of the week: Storm Kathleen Storm Kathleen was a deep area of low pressure that moved towards the UK and Ireland from the southwest, bringing unseasonably strong winds and causing travel and power disruption. News 10 April 2024 Estimating energy output from solar panels A new case study highlights a valuable tool for estimating energy output from solar panels Science Improving BRDF and aerosol models for calibration above desert This study aimed to enhance the EUMETSAT vicarious calibration system across a selection of bright desert pseudo-invariant calibration sites.
