Copernicus ROSE-L passed its latest test with flying colours!
Engineers have tested the deployment of a structural model of the satellite huge radar antenna.

Once launched, ROSE-L will deliver complementary data to fill gaps in the current Copernicus capabilities: www.esa.int/Applications...

We need fewer, better papers!

I Don’t Know How to Waste Time on the Internet Anymore The other day, I found myself looking at a blank address bar in a new tab of my web browser. I wanted to waste time, but … I didn’t know how.

I think about this essay at least once a week.

Cloud-Native Sentinel Data: EOPF Sentinel Zarr Explorer Launch Webinar YouTube video by thriveGEO

Did you miss the EOPF Sentinel Zarr Explorer Launch
last Monday?

Don't fret, we have a replay!

Dual use: If we like it or not, all civilian sats have defence-related uses.

This video shows the Russian Arctic Metagaz LNG carrier exploding after reportedly being hit by Ukranian drones. It comes from @eumetsat.int's Meteosat-12, a weather satellite. Weather is civil, but we see so much more.

Three books by W. Bond and collaborators: Fire and plants (1996), Fire in Mediterranean ecosystems (2012), and Open ecosystems (2019).

I'm very sad to say William Bond, of the University of Cape Town & Fellow of the Royal Society (@royalsociety.org ), has passed away. It is a great loss. He was an enthusiastic ecologist and a critical thinker. I learned a lot, and I still had a lot to learn from him. RIP. 😢

Modeling ozone deposition through plant stomata is tricky because simulating water limitation is a challenge, and O3 itself impacts stomatal functioning. Anam Khan and others demonstrate the key roles of soil moisture and VPD on stomatal ozone dry deposition models acp.copernicus.org/articles/25/...

I did enjoy that book... It brought back old memories (I caught the bitter end of that era)

You forgot angle of incidence;-) and coherency!
