Aerosol single-scattering albedo (ASSA) as derived from TROPOMI observations. ASSA is a measure of how much light is scattered by aerosols compared to how much is absorbed. It is important for understanding the impact of aerosols on climate and radiative forcing. ASSA is unitless; a value of unity implies that extinction is completely due to scattering; conversely, a single-scattering albedo of zero implies that extinction is completely due to absorption. Daily ASSA observations are binned onto a regular latitude-longitude grid. The TROPOMI instrument onboard the Copernicus SENTINEL-5 Precursor satellite is a nadir-viewing, imaging spectrometer that provides global measurements of atmospheric properties and constituents on a daily basis. It is contributing to monitoring air quality and climate, providing critical information to services and decision makers. The instrument uses passive remote sensing techniques by measuring the top of atmosphere solar radiation reflected by and radiated from the earth and its atmosphere. The four spectrometers of TROPOMI cover the ultraviolet (UV), visible (VIS), Near Infra-Red (NIR) and Short Wavelength Infra-Red (SWIR) domains of the electromagnetic spectrum. The operational trace gas products generated at DLR on behave ESA are: Ozone (O3), Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2), Sulfur Dioxide (SO2), Formaldehyde (HCHO), Carbon Monoxide (CO) and Methane (CH4), together with clouds and aerosol properties. This product is created in the scope of the project INPULS. It develops (a) innovative retrieval algorithms and processors for the generation of value-added products from the atmospheric Copernicus missions Sentinel-5 Precursor, Sentinel-4, and Sentinel-5, (b) cloud-based (re)processing systems, (c) improved data discovery and access technologies as well as server-side analytics for the users, and (d) data visualization services.
Hedgerows play an important role in maintaining biodiversity, carbon sequestration, soil stability and the ecological integrity of agricultural landscapes. In this dataset, hedgerows are mapped for the whole of Bavaria. Orthophotos with a spatial resolution of 20 cm, taken in the period from 2019 to 2021, were used in a deep learning approach. Hedgerow polygons of the Bavarian in-situ biotope mapping from 5 districts (Miltenberg, Hassberge, Dillingen a.d. Donau, Freyung-Grafenau, Weilheim-Schongau) as well as other manually digitized polygons were used for training and testing as input into a DeepLabV3 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The CNN has a Resnet50 backbone and was optimized with the Dice loss as a cost function. The generated hedgerow probability tiles were post-processed by merging and averaging the overlapping tile boundaries, shape simplification and filtering. For more details, see Huber Garcia et al. (2025). The dataset has been created within the project FPCUP (https://www.copernicus-user-uptake.eu/) in close cooperation with Bayerisches Landesamt für Umwelt (LfU).
Angesichts der durch steigende Kohlendioxid (CO2)- Konzentrationen bedingten Klimaerwärmung wird nach Möglichkeiten gesucht, CO2 unter anderem in terrestrischen Senken für längere Zeiträume festzulegen. Am Beispiel von Miscanthus x giganteus (Greef et Deu.) wurde untersucht, ob durch den Anbau von nachwachsenden Rohstoffen eine Kohlenstoff (C)- Festlegung in Böden unterschiedlicher Textur möglich ist. Zu diesem Zweck wird die Methode der natürlichen 13C-Abundanz angewandt. Mit dieser modernen Methode können C-Umsatzzeiten des Gesamtkohlenstoffs im Boden sowie seiner verschieden Pools abgeschätzt werden, aber auch die C-Dynamik auf molekularer Basis durch komponentenspezifische O13C Lipidanalysen untersucht werden. Die Untersuchungen zeigten, dass die unter Miscanthus ermittelten C-Verweilzeiten nur geringfügig länger sind als diejenigen unter Mais. Die jährliche Festlegung von miscanthusbürtigem C in der organischen Bodensubstanz (OBS) bestätigt nur für lehmigen Boden eine höhere C-Sequestrierung von Miscanthus. Es wurde eine vergleichbare C-Akkumulation durch den Miscanthusanbau wie in Grünlandböden festgestellt. Ebenso zeigen Inkubationsexperimente im Miscanthusboden eine ähnliche kumulative CO2-Freisetzung wie in Böden unter Grünland mit einer Tendenz zu geringfügig niedrigeren Freisetzungsraten im Miscanthusboden, Die Anteile von miscanthusbürtigem C am freigesetzten CO2 sind ähnlich wie in Versuchen mit Mais. Es lässt sich eine schnellere Umsetzung des miscanthusbürtigen C in der mikrobiellen Biomasse als leicht umsetzbarer C-Fraktion bestätigen. Die Zugabe leicht verfügbarer organischer Substanzen bewirkte eine verstärkte Mineralisierung der OBS, wobei dieser zusätzlich freigesetzte C entgegen den Erwartungen aus der alten, C3 bürtigen OBS Fraktion stammte. In 13C- Markierungsexperimenten konnte in Miscanthus, Mais, Weizen und Roggen die Verlagerung des kürzlich assimilierten CO2 in Pflanzenteilen verfolgt werden. Eine Verlagerung in den Boden fand hierbei kaum statt. Die O13C-Werte aus den komponentenspezifischen O13C- Lipidanalysen sind vielversprechend für die Diagnose von molekularen Markern und die daraus erfolgende Bestimmung der Umsatzraten. An den CO2- Konzentrationen der Bodenluft und der Herkunft des CO2 konnte der besondere Vegetationszyklus (später Wachstumsbeginn, verzögertes Wurzelwachstum) von Miscanthus wiedergespiegelt werden.
