ESA hosts new international office in the UK to coordinate global climate modelling push

CMIP6 - Mean temperature (T) Change (IPCC)

Climate models are used for understanding past climate and provide projections of potential changes. For addressing global warming, environmental changes and the resulting risks, there is an increased need and demand for further research and development in the field of climate modeling, together with the need for international collaboration.

NOAA-20

NOAA
No

NOAA-20, designated JPSS-1 prior to launch, is the first of the United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's latest generation of U.S. polar-orbiting, non-geosynchronous, environmental satellites called the Joint Polar Satellite System. NOAA-20 was launched on 18 November 2017 and joined the Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership satellite in the same orbit. NOAA-20 operates about 50 minutes ahead of Suomi NPP, allowing important overlap in observational coverage.
