| 内容記述 | Science objectives include: Collect the first space-based measurements of atmospheric CO2 with the precision, resolution, and coverage needed to characterize its sources and sinks on regional scales and quantify their variability over the seasonal cycle. Use independent data validation approaches to ensure high accuracy (1-2 ppm, 0.3% - 0.5%). Reliable climate predictions require an improved understanding of CO2 sinks. What human and natural processes are controlling atmospheric CO2? What are the relative roles of the oceans and land ecosystems in absorbing CO2? |
