The IASI CO CDR has been released: https://t.co/HjlyY8Agn4. Data available from EDC https://t.co/FbH38NpR8q. NRT data may be used to extent the CDR. Sources: Combustion of fossil and biofuels, biomass burning, oxidation of hydrocarbons. Affects human health, climate, ecosystems.

[AC SAF @Atmospheric_SAF]

The IASI SO2 CDR has been released: https://t.co/YOUbvASXSX. Data available from EDC https://t.co/OTpkJ04iCZ. NRT data may be used to extent the CDR. Sources: volcanic eruptions, industry, coal burning, metal smelting. Affects ecosystems, air traffic, and the climate.

Since 24 June 2024, GOME-2 on Metop-B has been experiencing increased instabilities in the spectral assignment in Channel-2B due to the degrading of the onboard Spectral Light Source.

1st online lecture of the 5th @esa/@eumetsat/@ECMWF training course this morning at 10am CEST ⬇️

@am_sundstrom (@IlmaTiede @Atmospheric_SAF) will talk about the principles of observing trace gases and aerosols from space using 🛰️UV-VIS instruments

The massive smoke plume from #GreeceFires is detected by #GOME2 #satellite on 22.8.2023. GOME-2 observations are available here: https://t.co/PA5bCXvyQH

[AC SAF @Atmospheric_SAF]

Highlatitude wildfires continue to emit large amounts of smoke. #GOME2 #satellite observations show how vast amounts of smoke have been transported across the Arctic during the past week. #CanadaFires

[AC SAF @Atmospheric_SAF]

Significant smoke plumes have been observed throughout July at high latitudes and the Arctic, originating from fires in Canada and Siberia #WildfireSmoke #satellite.
GOME-2 AAI data can be obtained from: https://t.co/PA5bCXvyQH

[AC SAF @Atmospheric_SAF]

In this study also #GOME2 #AAI absorbing aerosol index data was used, the data are available at 👉: https://t.co/PA5bCXvyQH

AC SAF News Bulletin 01/2023 is available summarizing the last achievements together with the plans for coming months: https://t.co/qRPxjtZVrK

[AC SAF @Atmospheric_SAF]

DLER v4 available in demonstrational mode (https://t.co/Mwn28hNUnE). Much more input data -> more reliable, more accurate and more stable. An additional wl at 747 nm. User guide: https://t.co/AbAxorLrKd. Please, give feedback, we appreciate it a lot.

For the users interested in historical IASI CO data, AC SAF IASI (Metop-A/B) Level 2 CO data record will be released soon. Follow the news here and on our website.

[AC SAF @Atmospheric_SAF]

IASI CO observations from last week show the smoke plumes from #CanadaWildfires passing over North-East USA. Air quality in the city of New York reached hazardous levels.
AC SAF IASI CO data is available Near Real-Time via EumetCast, see more info here: https://t.co/PrO6Y3NMmR.
