Global in situ Observations of Essential Climate and Ocean Variables at the Air–Sea Interface [PDF]

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
The air–sea interface is a key gateway in the Earth system. It is where the atmosphere sets the ocean in motion, climate/weather-relevant air–sea processes occur, and pollutants (i.e., plastic, anthropogenic carbon dioxide, radioactive/chemical waste ...

Toward a definition of Essential Mountain Climate Variables [PDF]

One Earth, 2021
<p>Numerous applications, including generating future predictions via numerical modelling, establishing appropriate policy instruments, and effectively tracking progress against them, require the multitude of complex processes and interactions operating in rapidly changing mountainous environmental systems to be well monitored and ...

The Concept of Essential Climate Variables in Support of Climate Research, Applications, and Policy [PDF]

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2014
Climate research, monitoring, prediction, and related services rely on accurate observations of the atmosphere, land, and ocean, adequately sampled globally and over sufficiently long time periods. The Global Climate Observing System, set up under the auspices of United Nations organizations and the International Council for Science to help ensure the ...

The ESA Climate Change Initiative: Satellite Data Records for Essential Climate Variables [PDF]

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2013
Observations of Earth from space have been made for over 40 years and have contributed to advances in many aspects of climate science. However, attempts to exploit this wealth of data are often hampered by a lack of homogeneity and continuity and by insufficient understanding of the products and their uncertainties.

A New Structure for the Sea Ice Essential Climate Variables of the Global Climate Observing System

Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2022
Abstract Climate observations inform about the past and present state of the climate system. They underpin climate science, feed into policies for adaptation and mitigation, and increase awareness of the impacts of climate change. The Global Climate Observing System (GCOS), a body of the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), assesses the maturity of
