CCI objectives
Realize the full potential of the long-term global EO
archives that ESA, together with its Member states,
has established over the last thirty years.....
….. as a significant and timely contribution to the
ECV databases required by the United Nations
Framework Convention on Climate Change
6 Years / 75 Meuro
Copenhagen COP15
“
Encourages CEOS to continue coordinating and supporting
the implementation of the satellite component of GCOS
Urges Parties that support space agencies involved in global
observations to enable these agencies to continue to
implement, in coordinated manner through CEOS, the actions
identified in the updated CEOS report, in order to meet the
relevant needs of the Convention, in particular by ensuring
long-term continuity of observations and data availability
”
a major scientific challenge
e.g. sea level ECV
GCOS Requirement
Accuracy
Stability

0.5 mm/decade
Current Status
2 cm
10 mm/decade
Two climate action paths
GCOS requirements <=> CEOS response
GCOS-82 in 2003
GCOS-92 in 2004
GCOS-107 in 2006
CEOS response 2006
CCI is part of ESA’s contribution
to the
coordinated international response
International
Coordination
CCI:CCI:
International
coordination
Main External Partners:
•
UNFCCC which coordinates the interests and decisions of its Parties on
Climate Policy,
•
GCOS which represents the scientific and technical requirements of the
Global Climate Observing System on behalf of UNFCCC,
•
CEOS which serves as a focal point for Earth Observation related activities
of Space Agencies (e.g NOAA, NASA, JAXA, EUMETSAT)
•
Individual Partner Space Agencies with whom ESA cooperates bilaterally
(e.g. EUMETSAT)
•
International Climate Research Programmes, which represent the collective
interests and priorities of the worldwide climate research, (e.g. WCRP)
•
EC and National Research Programmes which establish research priorities
and provide resources for climate research community within Europe (e.g.
DG Research, DG-JRC)
•
GMES Partners: DG Enterprise and Industry, user DGs ENV, EEA…

multiple
sensors….consistency…..
ESA missions data => FCDRs => ECVs
Data from each sensor contributes to FCDR of several ECVs
FCDR of each ECV requires data from several sensors

next 3 years => CCI phase 1
Cardinal Requirements
• Develop and validate algorithms to meet GCOS ECV requirements for
(consistent, stable, error-characterized) global satellite data products
from multi-sensor data archives
• Optimize impact of ESA EO missions data on climate data records
• Produce, within R&D context, most complete and consistent possible
multi-sensor global satellite data products for climate research and
modelling
• Generate complete specifications for an operational production system
• Strengthen inter-disciplinary cooperation between international earth
observation, climate research and modelling communities, in pursuit of
scientific excellence

- poorly or not represented in Models
- inter-linked:e.g. cloud, aerosol,
- of probabilistic nature e.g. clouds
