  1. ESA’s GMES SENTINEL-4 and SENTINEL-5 J.-L. Bézy, G. Bazalgette Courrèges-Lacoste, P. Ingmann, J. Langen, B. Sierk, H. Stark, B. Veihelmann Earth Observation Directorate

  2. Outline • GMES Sentinels programme • S4/S5 Mission objectives • Sentinel-4 • Sentinel-5 (p) • Programmatic status OMI NO2 over Europe 2004-2005 Image by Pepijn Veefkind, KNMI KNMI/IASB/ESA

  3. GMES Components GMES is an EU led initiative Services Component – led by EC • Produces information services in response to European policy priorities in environment and security • Relies on data from in-situ and space component In-situ component – led by EEA • Observations mostly within national responsibility, with coordination at European level Space Component – led by ESA • Sentinels - EO missions developed specifically for GMES: • Contributing Missions - EO missions built for purposes other than GMES but offering part of their capacity to GMES (EU/ESA MSs, EUMETSAT, commercial, international) GMES is a perfect example of a system of systems

  4. GMES dedicated missions: Sentinels Sentinel 1 – SAR imaging All weather, day/night applications, interferometry 2013 A / 2015 B Sentinel 2 – Multi-spectral imaging Land applications: urban, forest, agriculture,.. Continuity of Landsat, SPOT 2013 A / 2016 B Sentinel 3 – Ocean and global land monitoring Wide-swath ocean color, vegetation, sea/land surface temperature, altimetry 2013 A / 2017 B Sentinel 4 – Geostationary atmospheric Atmospheric composition monitoring – flown on MTG 2018+ Sentinel 5 – Low-orbit atmospheric Atmospheric composition monitoring – flown on MetOp-SG (S5 Precursor launch in 2014) 2018+

  5. Environmental issues of changing atmospheric composition Climate Change and the Greenhouse Effect Stratospheric Ozone Depletion and enhanced surface UV Stability of the Atmospheric Oxidation Efficiency Information services needed for - Monitoring - Forecasting - Assessment - Mitigation Increase in background tropospheric ozone Intercontinental transport of pollutants and aerosols Enhanced aerosol and photo-oxidant levels due to biomass burning Acid Rain Aerosols in and downwind of regions of high population Nutrification of coastal waters and freshwater lakes; eutrophication Los Angeles Smog or "summer" smog London Smog

  6. Air pollution and its effect on human health Loss in life expectancy in months attributable to anthropogenic PM2.5 [months] Source: EU programme CAFE, CAFE Scenario Analysis Report Nr. 2. (Amann et al., 2004) “Air pollution is a major environmental risk to health and is estimated to cause approximately 2 million premature deaths worldwide per year.”

  7. The Current Capabilities Research missions SCIAMACHY (Envisat) – OMI (Aura), Scisat, Mopitt (Terra), Gosat Operational missions GOME-2, IASI (MetOp), OMPS, CRIS (JPSS) Main gaps in current / planned operational system • High temporal and spatial resolution (more cloud free-views) space-based measurements of tropospheric (PBL) composition for application to air quality • High spatial/high precision monitoring of climate gases (CO2, CH4 and CO) and aerosol monitoring with sensitivity to the PBL • High vertical resolution measurements in the UT/LS region for ozone and climate applications 80 km GOME-2 SCIAMACHY OMI S4/S5 7 km

  8. Mission Implementation • Mission concept for climate protocol monitoring(lower troposphere) andair qualityapplications • Implementation of S-4 and S-5 on Eumetsat platforms • Sentinel 4 will be a realised as • a UVN spectrometer embarked on the MTG-S platforms • utilisation of TIR data from the IR sounder onboard the same platforms • utilisation of imager data from the MTG-I platforms • Sentinel 5 will consist of • AUVNS spectrometer embarked on the post-EPS platforms • utilisation of data from the post-EPS IR sounder (IASI NG) • utilisation of post-EPS imager data (METimage) • utilisation of multi-directional polarisation imager if implemented

The Instrument Challenge DOAS analysis of satellite spectra Irradiance and Radiance Measurement Derived Reflectance Note how small the NO2 features are, about 0.5% signal strength of the total signal Contributors to these Spectral Features are: polarisation scrambler, coatings, gratings, sun diffuser, straylight, gain change, … < 0.05 %! 3 nm

  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 CH4: • 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 The need for a Sentinel-5 Precursor

  20.

  21. Summary • Air pollution is a significant cause of health problems and environment damages worldwide • Sentinel-4 and -5 will monitor the Earth's atmosphere as part of the Europe Union's Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) programme • Mission will be embarked on MTG-S and MetOp-SG satellites for a launch in 2018+ and will be operated by EUMETSAT
