  6. CarbonSat Mission Goals CarbonSat aims at better separating natural and anthropogenic fluxes via high spatial resolution & good coverage atmospheric XCO2 and XCH4 data (secondary products: vegetation fluorescence, …)and “GHG imaging” of strong localized CO2 and CH4 emission sources. In combination with inverse modeling and robust validation (TCCON) this will provide: • Better top-down constraints on • regional / country scale (mainly natural) fluxes (sources and sinks) (e.g., SCIAMACHY, GOSAT, OCO-2, …) • city scale emissions (e.g., Buchwitz et al., 2013) • point source emissions (e.g., Bovensmann et al., 2010) Power plant CO2plume Paris cityCO2plume Figure: LSCE 7 kT CO2 for 2009

  7. Disentanglingnaturalandanthropogenicfluxes … … usingatmosphericmeasurementsfromspace: • Spatialpattern • Seasonalvariation • Correlationwithothertracegases (CO, NOx, Alkanes etc.) => synergywith S5P/S5 • Diurnal variation => constellationor GEO • Isotopes 8

  9. CarbonSat Mission Requirements High quality column-averaged mixing ratios • XCO2: • 1- 3 ppm prec. (single meas.) • < 0.5 ppm bias • XCH4: • 6 - 12 ppb prec. (single meas.) • < 5 ppb bias High spatial resolution and good coverage: • ~ 2 km ground pixel, • ~ 240 km swath width (goal 500 km) • covers globe 3 times per month Orbit: LEO Sun-synchronous, around 11:30 LT Modes: • Nadir imaging (main); for land & ocean • Sun-glint; for optimised signal over ocean • Mission Lifetime: 3-5 years • Validation and Inverse Modelling 13.500.000 3.100.000 NadirSun-glint 10

  17. Project Objectives The main objective of this study is to consolidate* Level 1b and Level 2 requirements for the CarbonSat Earth Explorer 8 Candidate Mission using quantitative modelling and retrieval studies. * Agency‘sinterpretation: Can wegetitcheaper/lesscomplex … * Scientist‘sinterpretation: Can wegetitbetter … 18
