The COMET Program announced the publication of "Monitoring the Climate System with Satellites." This 2-hour module, jointly funded by NOAA/NESDIS and EUMETSAT, describes the unique role that environmental satellites play in monitoring the Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) that are key for measuring the climate system. Satellites are uniquely positioned to provide broad, spatially consistent, and continuous global sampling of many ECVs.
