ORNL DAAC Request for Revising an Existing GCMD Project: COMEX

[ORNL - yaxingwei]

Hi,

We'd like to request to revise the definition and reference of an existing GCMD project keyword.

Existing GCMD project to be revised: UUID=10e3f0f0-f15f-4203-9481-8c5941ba1982
Short name: COMEX

New Definition: The CO2 and MEthane eXperiment (COMEX) campaign, funded bilaterally by NASA and ESA, supported the mission definition of CarbonSat and HyspIRI by providing representative airborne remote sensing data as well as ground-based and airborne in situ data. The objectives were addressed by a unique combination of VIS/NIR/SWIR hyperspectral remote sensing airborne instrumentation (AVIRIS-C and AVIRIS-NG), TIR hyperspectral remote sensing airborne instrumentation (Mako), NIR/SWIR spectroscopic remote sensing airborne instrumentation (MAMAP - Methane Airborne MAPper) as well as in situ airborne (Picarro GHG sensor/analyzer and CIRPAS atmospheric measurements suite) and ground based (AMOG - AutoMObile greenhouse Gas surveyor) measurements for validation and interpretation support. COMEX demonstrated that methane emissions associated with fossil fuel production activities in the Los Angeles area were of sufficient magnitude and size for space-based observations. COMEX was executed between May and September 2014 around the Southern California, USA, area.

Please let me know if you have any questions or need additional information.

Thanks,
