  • 2. an Approach to Antarctic Glacial History: the Aims of Leg 1781
    Barker, P.F., Camerlenghi, A., Acton, G.D., et al., 1999 Proceedings of the Ocean Drilling Program, Initial Reports Volume 178 2. AN APPROACH TO ANTARCTIC GLACIAL HISTORY: THE AIMS OF LEG 1781 P.F. Barker2 and A. Camerlenghi3 Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 178 was proposed partly as an examination of Antarctic Peninsula glacial history and partly as a test of the strategy of determining this history by sampling glacially trans- ported sediments at the continental margin. If successful, it could lead to a program of two or three other legs around Antarctica that, in com- bination, might determine the long-term history of the entire Antarctic Ice Sheet. Leg 178 also had a second objective: to obtain a long, high- resolution record of Holocene climate from Palmer Deep, an isolated deep basin on the inner continental shelf. The proposal that became Leg 178 was therefore based on several assumptions, described below. Briefly, they are: 1. The Antarctic Ice Sheet is now and has been throughout its ex- istence an important component of the Earth’s climate engine, which it is necessary to document and understand. 2. An understanding of the ice sheet’s function and what controls its development cannot be obtained until its history is known. 3. Existing knowledge of Antarctic glacial history, derived largely from sparse onshore data and low-latitude climate proxies, is in- adequate and ambiguous; the proxies themselves disagree. Fur- thermore, continued use of the same proxies and onshore data is unlikely to resolve present ambiguities and disputes. 1Examples of how to reference the 4.

Across track interferometry allows the angle to the point of closest approach to be determined by combining echoes received by two antennas and knowledge of their orientation. Accurate information of the platform mispointing angles, in particular of the roll, is crucial to determine the angle of arrival in the across-track direction with sufficient accuracy. As a consequence, different methods were designed in the CryoSat-2 calibration plan in order to estimate interferometer performance along with the mission and to assess the roll’s contribution to the accuracy of the angle of arrival. In this paper, we present the comprehensive approach used in the CryoSat-2 Mission to calibrate the roll mispointing angle, combining analysis from external calibration of both man-made targets, i.e., transponder and natural targets. The roll calibration approach for CryoSat-2 is proven to guarantee that the interferometric measurements are exceeding the expected performance.

    Research. Innovation. Sustainability PLANS FOR A NEW WAVE OF EUROPEAN SENTINEL SATELLITES The most ambitious and comprehensive plans ever for the European space sector, were approved at the end of 2019, with a total budget of ¤14.5 billion for the European Space Agency for the next three years – a 20% increase over the previous three-year budget. The decision allows a direct uplift to Europe’s Earth observation capability, expanding Copernicus – the European Union’s flagship Earth observation programme – with a suite of new, high-priority satellite missions. In this explainer we delve into the improvements and what they mean for sustainability and climate science. What is the Copernicus Programme? Copernicus is the European Union’s Earth observation programme, coordinated by the European Commission in partnership with the European Space Agency (ESA), EU Member States and other EU Agencies. Established in 2014, it builds on ESA’s Global Monitoring for Environment and Security (GMES) programme. Copernicus encompasses a system of satellites, airborne data, and ground stations supplying global monitoring data and operational services on a free-of-charge basis across six themes: atmosphere, marine, land, climate, emergency response and security. The Sentinel System – new and improved At the centre of the programme sits the Copernicus Space Component, which includes a family of satellites known collectively as Sentinels. These spacecraft provide routine atmospheric, oceanic, cryosphere and land global monitoring data, which are made freely available for Copernicus Services and major research and commercial applications such as precision farming, environmental hazards monitoring, weather forecasting and climate resilience. The soon-to-be-expanded Sentinel system will incorporate six high-priority missions.

  • Exploring the Benefits of Using Cryosat-2'S Cross-Track
    JULY 2013 D I B A R B O U R E E T A L . 1511 Exploring the Benefits of Using CryoSat-2’s Cross-Track Interferometry to Improve the Resolution of Multisatellite Mesoscale Fields G. DIBARBOURE CLS, Ramonville St-Agne, France P. Y. LE TRAON IFREMER, Plouzane, France N. GALIN Centre for Polar Observation and Modelling, Department of Earth Sciences, University College London, London, United Kingdom (Manuscript received 7 August 2012, in final form 12 January 2013) ABSTRACT Sea surface height (SSH) measurements provided by pulse-limited radar altimeters are one-dimensional profiles along the satellite’s nadir track, with no information whatsoever in the cross-track direction. The anisotropy of resulting SSH profiles is the most limiting factor of mesoscale SSH maps that merge the 1D profiles. This paper explores the potential of the cross-track slope derived from the Cryosphere Satellite-2 (CryoSat- 2)’s synthetic aperture radar interferometry (SARin) mode to increase the resolution of mesoscale fields in the cross-track direction. Through idealized 1D simulations, this study shows that it is possible to exploit the dual SARin measurement (cross-track slope and SSH profile) in order to constrain mesoscale mapping in the cross-track direction. An error-free SSH slope allows a single SARin instrument to recover almost as much SSH variance as two coordinated altimeters. Noise-corrupted slopes can also be exploited to improve the mapping, and a break- through is observed for SARin errors ranging from 1 to 5 mrad for 150-km-radius features in strong currents, and 0.1–0.5 mrad for global mesoscale.

  • ESA Propulsion Lab at ESTEC
    ESA Propulsion Lab at ESTEC IEPC-2009-236 Presented at the 31st International Electric Propulsion Conference, University of Michigan • Ann Arbor, Michigan • USA September 20 – 24, 2009 J. Gonzalez del Amo*, G. Saccoccia† and P.-E. Frigot‡ European Space Agency, ESTEC, Keplerlaan 1, 2201 AG Noordwijk, The Netherlands Abstract: Electric and chemical propulsion systems are very important for spacecraft applications. Performance and reliability of propulsion systems are two main areas that have to be demonstrated to any space project. Europe is developing several types of electric and chemical thrusters for application to many satellites. Design, manufacturing and testing of such thrusters is a complex activity that requires a great effort. Full characterisation, qualification, acceptance and plume interaction tests are mandatory in the full assessment of these technologies. The ESA Propulsion Laboratory (EPL) is an operational facility at ESTEC in the spacecraft propulsion testing field. The EPL provides test services to the ESA Propulsion and Aerothermodynamics Division, which is responsible at European Space Agency for R&D activities and support to projects in the areas of chemical propulsion, electric and advanced propulsion and aerothermodynamics. When applicable, the EPL also provides technical advice and support to external organisations for subjects related to propulsion testing and test facilities. A laboratory dedicated to electric propulsion exists at ESTEC since early 1980s. In the last years, the activities of the laboratory, under project request, have been expanded to chemical propulsion (cold gas and other non-toxic propellants). During 2004, EPL has obtained dual ISO 17025 accreditation and ISO 9001 certification. In 2007 the EPL changed its physical location and several tests were performed in order to validate the correct functioning of the facilities This paper will describe the EPL organisation, facilities and activities after the physical relocation.
