GHRSST/CEOS SST-VC, V1, 13 May 2014 Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites - CGMS Add CGMS agency logo here (in the slide master) Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites - CGMS Current Status of the SST Constellation GHRSST/CEOS SST-VC Presented to CGMS-42, WGIII session, agenda item 2.2

GHRSST/CEOS SST-VC, V1, 13 May 2014 Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites - CGMS Add CGMS agency logo here (in the slide master) Overview of GHRSST GHRSST, the Group for High Resolution Sea Surface Temperature grew out of a Pilot Project of the Global Ocean Data Assimilation Experiment (GODAE), 1997-2008. Composed of a Science Team of researchers and operational practitioners. Coordinates research and operational developments in satellite-derived SST. Organized into Working Groups and Technical Advisory Groups focused on particular problems or activities Data processing through Regional and Global Data Assembly Centres, combining satellite and auxiliary fields into common data formats for ease of access and analysis. Operational GHRSST data are available from the Global Data Assembly Centre (GDAC) at the JPL PO.DAAC: http://ghrsst.jpl.nasa.govhttp://ghrsst.jpl.nasa.gov Data are available in perpetuity at the GHRSST Long Term Stewardship and Reanalysis Facility at the NOAA National Oceanographic Data Center (http://ghrsst.nodc.noaa.gov).http://ghrsst.nodc.noaa.gov See https://www.ghrsst.org/ for further information.https://www.ghrsst.org/

GHRSST/CEOS SST-VC, V1, 13 May 2014 Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites - CGMS Add CGMS agency logo here (in the slide master) Overview of CEOS SST-VC Foster better engagement by Nations operating or preparing satellite SST sensors within the SST-VC and GHRSST frameworks, Maintain a strong and mutually supportive relationship with the GHRSST, Provide an interface to CEOS for GHRSST activities. Improve coordination, consolidation and development of the collective SST capability, Work to assure long-term continuity of passive microwave SST data, Develop the driving requirements to create, validate and sustain the development of an international ensemble of ECV SST measurements from space, Support outreach, education and development of new SST practitioners, Foster better use of reference sensors (i.e. dual view IR) within the Constellation, Provide advice and advocate to the international community the importance of SST, Enforce standards (e.g, definitions of SST, collection methods, algorithms, validation approaches, data management, product formats) Advocate and endorse future funding activities

GHRSST/CEOS SST-VC, V1, 13 May 2014 Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites - CGMS Add CGMS agency logo here (in the slide master) The SST constellation - core components Low Earth orbit Infrared (IR) sensors High spatial resolution ( ~ 1 km) Daily to weekly repeat sampling High accuracy (for dual-view reference sensor) Affected by clouds Low Earth orbit Passive Microwave (PMV) sensors Mesoscale spatial resolution ( ~ 25 km) Daily repeat sampling Affected by land and precipitating clouds Geostationary Earth orbit IR sensors Low spatial resolution ( ~ 5 km) Sub-hourly repeat sampling Affected by clouds

GHRSST/CEOS SST-VC, V1, 13 May 2014 Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites - CGMS Add CGMS agency logo here (in the slide master) Status – LEO IR sensors Currently have several sensors in operation AVHRR, MODIS, VIIRS Products available in GHRSST L2P format from many agencies Status Sub-critical – need dual-view reference sensor Activities on-going Copernicus Sentinel-3 SLSTR (dual-view capability) JPSS VIIRS follow-on EPS-SG METimage

GHRSST/CEOS SST-VC, V1, 13 May 2014 Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites - CGMS Add CGMS agency logo here (in the slide master) Status – LEO PMW sensors AMSR2 now in orbit Products available in GHRSST L2P format from JAXA Windsat and TMI (tropics only) still operating Products available in GHRSST L2P format from RSS Status Sub-critical – need redundant capability at all times Activities on-going NSOAS have microwave radiometer on HY-2 series GHRSST currently establishing links to NSOAS with support from EUMETSAT Joint GHRSST/NSOAS meeting took place in Beijing in April 2014

GHRSST/CEOS SST-VC, V1, 13 May 2014 Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites - CGMS Add CGMS agency logo here (in the slide master) Status – GEO IR sensors Geostationary constellation well supported GOES, MSG, MTSAT Data available in L2P from many agencies Status Sub-critical – significant data gap in Indian Ocean Activities on-going GHRSST/SST-VC trying to establish contact with other agencies ISRO for INSAT 3-D ISRO coming to GHRSST/SST-VC meeting (Cape Town, 2-6 June 2014) to present latest results and start discussions on providing data in GHRSST L2P format New contacts made with CMA and KMA at 4 th Asia/Oceania Meteorological Satellite Users’ Conference but no follow-up yet. Also, would like to make contact with ROSHYDROMET amongst others.

GHRSST/CEOS SST-VC, V1, 13 May 2014 Coordination Group for Meteorological Satellites - CGMS Add CGMS agency logo here (in the slide master) Summary GHRSST idetified three main issues with the SST constellation at CGMS-41 Redundant capability needed for microwave SST measurements Geostationary SST over the full Indian Ocean Replacement ‘reference’ satellite SST dataset needed after loss of AATSR Progress being made in all areas In addition, white paper on “SST Vision for 2025” being developed Significant current and future capability in SST – see CEOS MIM database at http://database.eohandbook.com/timeline/timeline.aspxhttp://database.eohandbook.com/timeline/timeline.aspx Optimising the constellation is essential All agencies with an SST capability are encouraged to Adopt GHRSST data formats for their SST datasets Participate in GHRSST Participate in the SST-VC Assistance from CGMS is sought to address these on-going issues
