Thomas LavergneI will not be at <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/LPS25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LPS25</a>, Europe's largest 🛰️ Earth Observation conference, in Vienna this week.But many of my good friends and colleagues will, including those from <a href="https://mastodon.social/@osi_saf" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@osi_saf</a> , <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/CCI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CCI</a> (Climate Change Initiative), and <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/CIMR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CIMR</a> (the future satellite in my profile banner). Catch many of them at the <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/SeaIce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SeaIce</a> session, but also <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/SoilMoisture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SoilMoisture</a> and <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/SMOS15" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SMOS15</a> sessions.Enjoy the conference, while I enjoy some early vacation in Grenoble 😅.

Phil BrowneWell it turns out we have 3 open positions that I should tell you about: - <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Assimilation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Assimilation</a> of <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/GNSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#GNSS</a>-R to improve the land surface (in the same team as me) - Assimilation of <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/CIMR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CIMR</a> in the coupled system looking at the ocean (we've already started preparing for the sea ice part; on the <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ESA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ESA</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/DANTEX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#DANTEX</a> project I'm involved in) - A climate reanalysis scientist looking after the quality of <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ERA6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ERA6</a> <a href="https://jobs.ecmwf.int/Home/Job" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://jobs.ecmwf.int/Home/Job</a>Get in touch!<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/FediJobs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FediJobs</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ScienceJobs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ScienceJobs</a> <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Hiring" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Hiring</a> (Bonus section head job available if you fancy it!)

Thomas Lavergnenot "what on Earth" but "what in Space!" 😅 We are developing the prototype ground processor for the <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/CIMR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CIMR</a> 🛰️ mission (>= 2029).All 20+ Polar Oceans products (including <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/SeaIce" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SeaIce</a> variables) and Global Land products (Soil Moisture, Snow, etc...) for the CIMR mission need documenting. Plus the documents to describe file formats, the software architecture, the future validation campaign 😂 , etc...This is our Year 1 review with ESA, so many of the docs are still draft.-> <a href="https://github.com/CIMR-L2PAD/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://github.com/CIMR-L2PAD/</a>

anlomedad<a href="https://fediscience.org/@lavergnetho" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@lavergnetho</a> That's exciting! May they be nice to you and offer delicious cookies! If I may be so bold, I have a few questions wrt satellite use. Is <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Sentinel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Sentinel</a> <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/CIMR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CIMR</a> going to be a dedicated satellite or does the device go piggy-back on another? When new measurement devices are introduced, is it part of the plan to later consolidate satellite use, ie put more and more devices on a single sat where compatible, once the first of their carriers get de-orbited and replaced? What is the weight & life expectancy of the new CIMR <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/satellite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#satellite</a> and what is its decommissioning procedure – burn up or shoot outside Earth's orbit?You probably guessed it: my questions relate to <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/sustainability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sustainability</a> in general, to space debris, and most of all: the impact of burnt-up satellite material on chemistry and climate. An institution like <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/ESA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ESA</a> can set the tone so rogue, unregulated actors like <a href="https://climatejustice.social/tags/Starlink" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Starlink</a> might soon be reigned-in before their bad biz plan lets 27t of satellite material burn up – every single day!

Thomas LavergneSo excited/humbled to have <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/ESA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ESA</a> and my partner institutes in <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Oslo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Oslo</a> this week to discuss <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/CIMR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CIMR</a> LEVEL-2 products!<a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/CIMR" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CIMR</a> is an upcoming <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Sentinel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Sentinel</a> satellite that will help us monitor the <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Earth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Earth</a> and its <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/Climate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Climate</a> in the polar regions.We are at the start of an exciting 4-year activity, the <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/L2PAD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#L2PAD</a>, to prepare <a href="https://fediscience.org/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OpenSource</a> algorithms and products for this satellite. Can't wait to meet the team, it will be the first time I meet some of them in person.
