Joint Seminar: Global Change Observation Mission (GCOM) 1st Research Announcement: AMSR2 on GCOM-W1 Algorithm, Validation, and Application
GCOM will be a series of JAXA Earth Observation Missions. Together with the
GPM Mission of Japan it contributes to the GEOSS (Global Earth Observation
System of Systems). One main goal of the GCOM-W1 mission is to observe the
water cycle. With this mission, the AMSR follow-on instrument will be put
into space, opening several opportunities for passive microwave
remote-sensing. Relevant parameters that can be retrieved with the ASMR2
radiometer will be:
- Sea ice concentration, type, drift, snow depth
- SST, wind speed
- Water vapor, cloud liquid water, precipitation
In this workshop, remote sensing groups are invited to give a short
presentation on their possible contribution for the above RA and to discuss a
joint application.
