17 Summary / Recommendations Remote sensing of atmospheric composition evolved from science and pre-operational missions (SCIAMACHY, GOME-1/- 2, OMI, ) into operations within COPERNICUS (Sentinel-5P, Sentinel-4, Sentinel-5 and related services) for Ozone, Climate and Air Qualitity applications with data continuity over 2.5 decades. The scientific potential of atmospheric Sentinels remain partly unexplored, due to the lack of funding for science. Especially S-4 on MTG and S-5 on METOP-NG offer a lot of synergies across sensors on same platform (multi-sensor products), its potential is currently in large parts unexplored. Amount of data will challenge data usage. The atmospheric Sentinels needs to be improved within the Sentinel evolution process: Adequate (fit-for-purpose) greenhouse gas data (CO 2, CH 4 ) Higher spatial resolution (1-2 km) for Sentinel-4/-5 follow-on heinrich.bovensmann@uni bremen.de Nationaler Nutzer Fachworkshop CAMS/C3S, 22./ , DWD, Offenbach a.m. Slide 17

The studies began when the Tiros satellites (1960) provided man s first synoptic view of the Earth s weather systems.

The studies began when the Tiros satellites (1960) provided man s first synoptic view of the Earth s weather systems. Remote sensing of the Earth from orbital altitudes was recognized in the mid-1960 s as a potential technique for obtaining information important for the effective use and conservation of natural resources.
