METOP GOME-2 - Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) - Global

The Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment-2 (GOME-2) instrument continues the long-term monitoring of atmospheric trace gas constituents started with GOME / ERS-2 and SCIAMACHY / Envisat. Currently, there are three GOME-2 instruments operating on board EUMETSAT's Meteorological Operational satellites MetOp-A, -B, and -C, launched in October 2006, September 2012, and November 2018, respectively. GOME-2 can measure a range of atmospheric trace constituents, with the emphasis on global ozone distributions. Furthermore, cloud properties and intensities of ultraviolet radiation are retrieved. These data are crucial for monitoring the atmospheric composition and the detection of pollutants. DLR generates operational GOME-2 / MetOp level 2 products in the framework of EUMETSAT's Satellite Application Facility on Atmospheric Chemistry Monitoring (AC-SAF). GOME-2 near-real-time products are available already two hours after sensing. The operational SO2 total column products are generated using the algorithm GDP (GOME Data Processor) version 4.x integrated into the UPAS (Universal Processor for UV / VIS Atmospheric Spectrometers) processor for generating level 2 trace gas and cloud products. GDP 4.x performs a DOAS fit for SO2 slant column followed by an AMF / VCD computation using a single wavelength. Corrections are applied to the slant column for equatorial offset, interference of SO2 and SO2 absorption, and SZA dependence.

Analyse und Nowcasting von konvektiven Systemen mit VERA

Die genaue Vorhersage von Gewittern ist sowohl für die Wissenschaft als auch für die Öffentlichkeit ein wichtiges Anliegen, da konvektive Ereignisse im Sommer zu den größten Naturgefahren in unseren Breiten gehören. Um die Entstehungsprozesse von Gewittern genauer zu verstehen, ist eine Untersuchung von Konvektion auf einer hoch auflösenden Skala nötig. Nur damit kann man den heutigen Anforderungen an die Vorhersage (in Bezug auf Zeit, Raum und Intensität) gerecht werden. Zu diesem Zweck wird im nächsten Jahr im Rahmen von zwei internationalen Projekten (COPS und MAP D-PHASE) im Süden von Deutschland eine groß angelegte Messkampagne durchgeführt. Das Hauptziel dieser Kampagne ist die Erstellung eines hochwertigen Datensatzes für die Untersuchung konvektiver Prozesse, von der Auslösung von Konvektion über die Wolken- und Niederschlagsbildung bis hin zur Untersuchung von Wolkenchemie und Hydrometeoren. Damit sollen meteorologische (und hydrologische) Vorhersagen für konvektive Ereignisse verbessert werden. Sowohl bei COPS (Convective and Orographically-induced Precipitation Study; Teil des Priority Program SSP 1167 der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft) als auch bei MAP D-PHASE (Mesoscale Alpine Program Demonstration of Probabilistic Hydrological and Atmospheric Simulation of flood Events in the Alpine region, ein von der Welt-Meteorologischen Organisation gefördertes Projekt) ist das Institut für Meteorologie und Geophysik in der Planungsphase vertreten. Im Rahmen des vorgeschlagenen Projektes soll die Messkampagne durch den Einsatz eines eigenen Meso-Messnetzes und Personal unterstützt werden, womit ein wichtiger Beitrag zu dem einmaligen Datensatz, der durch den Einsatz verschiedenster Messsysteme (Bodenstationen, Dopplerradar, Lidar, Satelliten, Flugzeuge, Radiosonden, ...) zu Stande kommt, geleistet wird. Mit Hilfe der Daten aus der Feldkampagne soll im Zuge des Projektes das Analyseverfahren VERA, das im Rahmen von FWF-Projekten am Institut entwickelt worden ist, einerseits für das Nowcasting von Gewittern, andererseits zur genaueren Niederschlagsanalyse, weiterentwickelt werden. Für beide Entwicklungsschritte wird dem Fingerprint-Ansatz, mit dem Zusatzinformation für das Downscaling meteorologischer Felder in die VERA-Analyse implementiert werden kann, eine wichtige Rolle zukommen. Dieser Ansatz wird für 3 Dimensionen, mehrere Fingerprints und höhere Auflösungen (bis 1km Gitterdistanz) erweitert. Mittels des Datensatzes werden neue Fingerprints entwickelt, die dazu beitragen werden, die Analysegenauigkeit für den Niederschlag und die Vorhersagbarkeit von Gewittern in Echtzeit mit Routinedaten zu verbessern. Das fertig entwickelte Analyseverfahren soll dann in einem weiteren Schritt zur Echtzeit-Validierung von hoch auflösenden Wettermodellen verwendet werden, wobei ein neuer Ansatz des Vergleiches zum Tragen kommt. Auch dadurch wird ein Beitrag zur besseren Vorhersagbarkeit von Gewittern geleistet.

Sentinel-2 Sachsen-Anhalt

Bei dem Datensatz handelt es sich um Fernerkundungsdaten aus dem Copernicus-Programm der Europäischen Kommission und der Europäischen Weltraumorganisation, die für das Gebiet von Sachsen-Anhalt aufbereitet wurden. Die Sentinel-2 Satelliten des Copernicus-Programm liefern multispektrale Aufnahmen im Wellenlängenbereich des sichtbaren Licht (VIS) und nahen Infrarotbereich (NIR) aus denen nahezu wolkenfreie Mosaikbilder erstellt werden. Diese Daten finden insbesondere in der Forst-, Wasser-, und Agrarwirtschaft Anwendung um z.B. zeitliche Veränderungen zu beobachten.

Sentinel-5P TROPOMI Surface Nitrogendioxide (NO2), Level 4 – Regional (Germany and neighboring countries)

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 displays the Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) near surface concentration for Germany and neighboring countries as derived from the POLYPHEMUS/DLR air quality model. Surface NO2 is mainly generated by anthropogenic sources, e.g. transport and industry. POLYPHEMUS/DLR is a state-of-the-art air quality model taking into consideration - meteorological conditions, - photochemistry, - anthropogenic and natural (biogenic) emissions, - TROPOMI NO2 observations for data assimilation. This Level 4 air quality product (surface NO2 at 15:00 UTC) is based on innovative algorithms, processors, data assimilation schemes and operational processing and dissemination chain developed in the framework of the INPULS project. The DLR project INPULS 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.

Sentinel-5P TROPOMI - Aerosol Single-Scattering Albedo (ASSA), Level 3 - Global

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.
