1 German Aerospace Center – Space Administration
> Lecture > Author • Document > Date German Aerospace Center – Space Administration CEOS Working Group on Cal/Val Plenary Meeting # 44 August 28th-31th, 2018 Albrecht von Bargen (DLR Space Administration) Andreas Fix, Gerhard Ehret (DLR IPA) Julia Marshall (MPI for Bio-Geochemistry)

2 German Space Programme Heritage
> Lecture > Author • Document > Date German Space Programme Heritage SCIAMACHY on-board ESA’s ENVISAT (DLR / NSO / BIRA) Launched in 2002 and successfully operated until 2012 Main focus on atmospheric constituents (ozone hole) Included channels to sense Greenhouse Gases First demonstrator observing Greenhouse Gases from space National Mission Study (CarbonMon) Passive remote sensing (spectrometry) of CO2 and Methane Active remote sensing (lidar) of Methane Understanding the sources / sinks and fluxes on regional and local scale ESA Earth Explorer 8 candidate CarbonSAT Common French and German cabinet decision (2010) Bi-national mission to understand the climate changes

3 MERLIN aims at improving our knowledge of the Global Methane Cycle and of the processes which govern the exchange of methane between biosphere and atmosphere Primary mission objective High accurate space-borne measurements of the spatial and temporal variability of atmospheric CH4 for determination of Methane fluxes (emissions) on the Earth surface Secondary mission objective Surface properties & vegetation Contribution to cloud / aerosol data base Launch in 2023 / life time of around 3 years Major milestone: successful airborne demonstrator flight in 2015 © DLR IPA CHARM-F on HALO 2015

5 CoMet Goals Providing airborne data for regional inverse modeling of CH4 and CO2 Identifying local and regional GHG sources Improving regional-scale estimates of GHG fluxes Validating satellite measurements (GOSAT, Sentinel-5P, OCO2), test for MERLIN! Using an innovative airborne payload (active + passive remote sensing)

6 Airborne instrumentation for CoMet:
Instrument acronym Description Aircraft CHARM-F DLR Lidar (IPDA) XCO2 and CH4 HALO_JIG MPI Cavity Ringdown Spectrometer HALO_JAS MPI Flask sampler miniDOAS IUP-UH Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy BAHAMAS DLR HALO basic data acquisition system Dropsondes DLR Meteorological sondes FOKAL Menlo/DLR Miniaturized Frequency comb MAMAP IUP-UB NIR spectrometer (XCO2 and XCH4) QCLS DLR Quantum Cascade Laser Spectrometer DLR-Cessna CRDS DLR Sampler DLR/MPI METPOD DLR Cessna basic data acquisition system HALO FU Berlin Cessna 207 DLR Cessna 208

7 COMET: An airborne mission to simultaneously measure CO2 and CH4 using lidar, passive remote sensing and in-situ techniques Quicklook result: CHARM-F on the HALO aircraft First measurement of CO2 emissions from large power plants (Jänschwalde, DE, ~25 Mt CO2/yr) by co-located airborne passive (MAMAP) & active (CHARM-F) remote sensing instruments Quicklook result: MAMAP on the Cessna aircraft

8 DLR Policy on Greenhouse Gas Remote Sensing
> Lecture > Author • Document > Date DLR Policy on Greenhouse Gas Remote Sensing German Space Programme reflects the high and sustained commitment of Germany National level (Mission and data exploitation) Coherent R&D on GHG measurements from space Concepts of integration of current & future missions (TanDEM, EnMAP, MERLIN) incl. in-situ & modelling Supporting mission success by on-ground Cal/Val activities & coordinating German user community European level EC COPERNICUS programme including services, e.g. Sentinel-4, Sentinel-5, and Sentinel-NG ESA Earth Observation programme EUMETSAT programme International level Bilateral efforts (mission implementations, agreements etc.) Multilateral coordination of space agencies’ activities (CEOS) and support to GEO initiatives Inclusion of space-based measurements in international efforts for the evaluation of GHGs
