Study of the global ‘red tide’, with analysis of water-leaving radiance at 709 nm on the full archive of ENVISAT MERIS, searched for benthic vegetation, floating vegetation, blooms in ice (location, extent, intensity, variability). The intensive processing of the full archive led to the detection of a variety of events, in Canada & Gulf of Mexico, of previously unreported extensive areas of pelagic vegetation or ‘Sargassum’ (Source: Gower & King IOS/ESA).
“In the hunt for the red tide toxins, more studies need to be carried on to better understand the role of the related environmental parameters…”
CryoSat’s measurements since October 2010 allow scientist to work out the real loss of ice, monitor seasonal change and identify trends. The thickness of sea ice reached record low levels. The measurements show similar results than simulations coming from PIOMAS, the Pan-Arctic Ice-Ocean Modelling and Assimilation System (Source: ESRIN/ESA).
“Now imagine you can leverage innovative, powerful tools to investigate further & quicker on this challenging environmental issue…”
With 18 months of SCIAMACHY observations, European scientists mapped a high-resolution global map of nitrogen dioxide pollution. A new model is now being developed to deal with the full archived data (Source: IUP Heidelberg/ESA).
“Flexible Cloud Services are needed to cope with further atmospheric composition measurements. Continuity instruments will fly from 2014 onwards to deliver more data…
