19. IGARSS 2011, Vancouver, Canada, 24-29 July 2011 ESA’s GMES SENTINEL-4 AND -5 | J.-L. Bézy Slide 19 The need for a Sentinel-5 Precursor 1. Continuity of data Research missions (here Sciamachy, OMI, TES, Mopitt) stop ≤ 2014. Sentinel-5 on post-EPS not before ~2018. MetOp data do not satisfy S5 requirements:  CO and CH 4 :  No measurement by GOME-2;  IASI data have little PBL sensitivity.  Coarse spatial resolution 2. Transition to operational scheme  Afternoon orbit required for AQ forecast (MetOp: 9:30h).  Use synergy S5 precursor – MetOp to start into observation of diurnal variation, as needed for AQ monitoring. (Will be picked up by S4 later). Sentinel 5p will be a realised as a single-satellite atmospheric chemistry mission carrying a UVNS spectrometer, aiming at providing a gap-filler, within the 2014-2020 timeframe
