SUMMARY:The Hub Talks: Absolut Sensing’s GEN1: One Year of In-Orbit Operations and Data Processing for Facility-Scale Methane Monitoring
DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Amélie Falcou\, Frédéric Roman \n\n\n\nAbstract: This talk presents a one-year return on experience from the in-orbit operations of the GESat GEN1 mission\, a compact satellite designed to detect and quantify methane emissions at facility scale. \n\n\n\nWe will first introduce the mission concept\, based on a SWIR Fizeau interferometer combined with a push-frame acquisition strategy\, enabling high-resolution measurements from a small satellite platform. We will then describe the ground processing chain\, from raw interferometric measurements to methane concentration and emission products\, including calibration\, interferogram reconstruction\, and physics-based retrieval. \n\n\n\nParticular emphasis will be placed on the articulation between instrument physics\, radiative transfer modeling\, and inverse methods\, which together enable robust methane detection and quantification. \n\n\n\nA key focus of the presentation will be the validation of the measurements and derived products. We will present in-orbit performance results\, including statistical assessment of retrieval precision\, consistency analysis across repeated acquisitions\, and comparisons with reference datasets such as TCCON and TROPOMI. We will also highlight validation campaigns based on controlled methane releases\, demonstrating accurate quantification of emission rates under real conditions\, including blind test scenarios. \n\n\n\nFinally\, we will share lessons learned from operating such a system in real conditions\, highlighting key challenges across the acquisition and processing chain\, as well as perspectives for improving performance and scaling towards future constellation deployments. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft Teams meeting \n\n\n\nJoin: https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/32557833884145?p=xo3EO8Qt4ApyCoCO6I \n\n\n\nMeeting ID: 325 578 338 841 45 \n\n\n\nPasscode: ii7Xa7aC \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNeed help? | System reference \n\n\n\nDial in by phone \n\n\n\n+39 02 0062 4740\,\,172535451# Italy\, Milan \n\n\n\nFind a local number \n\n\n\nPhone conference ID: 172 535 451# \n\n\n\nJoin on a video conferencing device \n\n\n\nTenant key: teams@meet.esa.int \n\n\n\nVideo ID: 122 681 065 1 \n\n\n\nMore info \n\n\n\nFor organizers: Meeting options | Reset dial-in PIN \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrg help | Privacy and security

SUMMARY:The Hub Talks: The STRIVE Earth System Explorer mission: Transforming our view of the upper troposphere and stratosphere
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Lyatt Jaeglé\, University of Washington\, USA \n\n\n\nShort Bio: Lyatt Jaeglé is a Professor in the Department of Atmospheric and Climate Science at the University of Washington. She joined the University of Washington in 2000 after obtaining her Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering Science from the California Institute of Technology and completing postdoctoral research at Harvard University. \n\n\n\nHer research focuses on understanding the chemical composition of the atmosphere and how natural processes and human activities influence air quality\, climate\, and atmospheric composition from regional to global scales. She combines satellite observations\, aircraft measurements\, ground-based observations\, and atmospheric chemistry models to study regional air quality\, long-range transport\, stratosphere–troposphere exchange\, and aerosol sources from urban to remote environments. Jaeglé has participated in numerous NASA and NSF aircraft field campaigns and has authored more than 100 peer-reviewed publications. She currently serves as the Principal Investigator of STRIVE (Stratosphere Troposphere Response using Infrared Vertically-resolved light Explorer)\, a NASA Earth System Explorer mission\, selected for development in 2026. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbstract: Stratosphere Troposphere Response using Infrared Vertically-resolved light Explorer (STRIVE) is a NASA Earth System Explorer mission recently selected for continued development. Following a successful Phase A concept study\, STRIVE has entered Phase B\, with launch planned in 2030. STRIVE fills a critical need for high vertical resolution profiles of temperature\, ozone\, trace gases\, and aerosols in the upper troposphere and stratosphere with near-global horizontal sampling. The goal of STRIVE is to understand the processes controlling the composition and dynamics of the upper troposphere and stratosphere\, thus constraining their critical influence on the predictability of weather\, climate\, the ozone layer\, and air quality. \n\n\n\nThe mission carries two synergistic limb-viewing instruments: a limb-scanning imaging Dyson spectrometer retrieving profiles of temperature\, trace gas concentrations\, aerosol extinction\, and cloud properties during day and night; and a dual-spectral multi-directional limb profiling radiometer retrieving detailed aerosol properties during day. STRIVE will measure infrared radiation emitted and scattered from the atmospheric limb to provide profiles of temperature\, O3\, H2O\, CH4\, N2O\, CFCs\, CO\, NO2\, HNO3\, ClONO2\, N2O5\, HCN\, cloud top height\, polar stratospheric clouds\, and aerosol properties with fine vertical resolution (1 km) and unparalleled horizontal sampling (>400\,000 profiles each day). STRIVE has the novel ability to resolve small-scale vertical structures of atmospheric composition and temperature\, enabling new insights into the processes of troposphere-stratosphere interactions. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMicrosoft Teams meeting \n\n\n\nJoin: https://teams.microsoft.com/meet/32557833884145?p=xo3EO8Qt4ApyCoCO6I \n\n\n\nMeeting ID: 325 578 338 841 45 \n\n\n\nPasscode: ii7Xa7aC \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNeed help? | System reference \n\n\n\nDial in by phone \n\n\n\n+39 02 0062 4740\,\,172535451# Italy\, Milan \n\n\n\nFind a local number \n\n\n\nPhone conference ID: 172 535 451# \n\n\n\nJoin on a video conferencing device \n\n\n\nTenant key: teams@meet.esa.int \n\n\n\nVideo ID: 122 681 065 1 \n\n\n\nMore info \n\n\n\nFor organizers: Meeting options | Reset dial-in PIN \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOrg help | Privacy and security

SUMMARY:ESA’s EarthCODE Hackathon 2026
DESCRIPTION:Background\n\n\n\nThe EarthCODE Hackathon will take place from 30 November – 4 December 2026 at ESA ESRIN\, in Frascati\, Italy. The event will provide an opportunity to bring the communities who are using EarthCODE tools and services as close as possible to the people who are building them. \n\n\n\nThe EarthCODE Hackathon will bring together Ocean\, Carbon\, and Polar scientists\, experts in FAIR data and workflow engineering and open source developers to focus on the creation and enhancement of thematic\, analysis ready data collections\, built from scientific project outputs. These collections will integrate multiple geophysical variables\, delivered in cloud optimised\, interoperable formats\, and made openly accessible through the EarthCODE Open Science Catalogue. \n\n\n\nObjectives\n\n\n\nThe overall objective of the EarthCODE Hackathon is to demonstrate and strengthen EarthCODE’s role as a federated environment for publishing\, discovering\, and using Earth system data. Specifically\, the hackathon aims to: \n\n\n\n\nDemonstrate how EarthCODE services support the publication and reuse of scientific data from ESA Science Clusters\n\n\n\nBuild and showcase thematic analysis ready data collections for different scientific domains\n\n\n\nEnable Science Cluster teams to create and manage their own data collections using EarthCODE tools and libraries\n\n\n\nPromote open access and visibility of high impact scientific datasets via dashboards and interactive viewers\n\n\n\nFoster collaboration between scientists and the open source developer community\n\n\n\nContribute to the evolution of EarthCODE services and tools\n\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nRegistration will open in September 2026
