Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) evolution: new and innovative processing and methods for future Sentinels and other satellites for reanalyses is a European Commission Research and Innovation Action, worth up to EUR 10 million, that funds one research project improving how the Copernicus Climate Change Service turns satellite and historical data into long-run climate reanalyses, including A…

The Commission wants better methods for assimilating Sentinel and other satellite observations into Copernicus climate reanalyses, including AI/ML techniques for rescuing and correcting historical observation records and speeding up reanalysis production. It is particularly interested in work that could extend reanalyses back toward the early 1900s and improve the datasets used to attribute extreme weather events to climate change.
