Entry: Green-house gas Observing Satellite - 2

URI: https://terra-vocabulary.org/ncl/FAIR-Incubator/earthscienceplatforms/c_0f20cc6b

GOSAT-2 is a follow-on Japanese mission of GOSAT/Ibuki. The experiences gained from the operation of the GOSAT mission with regard to payload calibration and validation activities served as input for the requirements of the GOSAT-2 mission. GOSAT-2 was launched on 29 October 2018. The goals for the GOSAT-2 are to measure carbon dioxide at 0.5 ppm and methane at 5 ppb at a 500 km mesh. Developers have also enhanced the satellite's focused, target-point observation capabilities, enabling the device to gather accurate readings from a broader range of target points - an ability that will be especially beneficial in evaluations of industrial areas, densely populated areas, and other areas with large quantities of greenhouse gas emissions. In another improvement over its predecessor, the GOSAT-2 is also capable of monitoring carbon monoxide concentrations.
