brief description
If you are submitting to the Climate Science Data Generation technology focus area, you should propose methods to generate high quality climate science data from low-mass/volume/power instruments that can be or are hosted on commercial spacecraft.
key insights
Quantitative descriptions of the state-of-the-art in measurement parameters needed for climate science are provided in the climate variability and change panel of Table B.1 “ESAS 2017 Consolidated Science and Applications Traceability Matrix” (pages 596-612) in “Thriving on Our Changing Planet: A Decadal Strategy for Earth Observation from Space (2018)."
Proposals should address means to increase performance in the state-of-the-art of the geophysical observables listed in this table (e.g., increase spatial or spectral resolution, sampling rates, range…) or propose means to substantially reduce the cost of current state-of-the-art measurements.
