Goddard Space Flight Center Earth Science Missions and Opportunities for the Atmospheric Chemistry and Dynamics Branch Mark Schoeberl
Missions and HQ Goddard Space Flight Center Ø There appears to be a lot of confusion at HQ about new missions Mike Freilich wants to stick to the Decadal Survey (DS) mission set Ø Some new money to begin work on Phase A for Ice. Sat II and SMAP NASA studies suggest that DS mission costs are too low by 1. 5 -2 x Ø Griffin is openly hostile to doing Earth Science missions because it would take money from Exploration Ø Stern (from the planetary side) can’t understand why we are so expensive - GSFC is responding to this. Lost of pressure from everywhere to have NASA do more Earth Science Change in Administration will probably help Ø What are our instrument strengths UV-Vis (ACAM, Geo-Spec) ØWhat else can we do? OSSE’s for Geo or Leo missions ØNeed to define the goal of the OSSE Ø Simulate what the instrument will see Ø Determine if the information useful for assimilation Ø Figure out what else needs to be measured 2

NAS Missions HQ Sup. GSFC Sup. Goddard Space Flight Center Mission Name (GSFC Lead) WAG Cost (K) Comment CLARREO (Platnick) 450? ? SMAP [Hydros] (O’Neill) 412 Expecting pre-Phase A money. JPL is mission lead. DESDyn. NI (Ranson) 760? ? Need to develop separate multi-beam lidar mission decoupled from JPL radar. Orbits for radar not optimal for lidar. Costs unrealistic. ICESat II (Waleed) 500 Good IMDC and Center support ACE (Schoeberl) 1600 IMDC and Center support. Need follow on studies. Partner with JPL? 4 instruments need to be worked at GSFC (polarimeter, µ-wave radiometer, ORCA, MBL) Hysp. IR (Ranson) 470 Linkage to HI-ER, competition from JPL. Could play here if we wanted to. SWOT (Jasinski) 450 JPL only mission. Dual SAR. Minimal GSFC interest unless community wants a lidar Geo. Cape (Kawa) 1300 Need to develop a joint effort with Langley and APL. Need stronger HQ leadership ASCENDS (Abshire) 500 Competes with Berrien Moore ITT concept. With Moore leaving for Google and Browell retiring may have more opportunity. GRACE II (Rodell) 300 -500 SLCP (Kim) 300 -500 GACM (Bhartia) >1000 3 satellites, 2 instruments -FTIR thermal, VIS-NIR unknown. NOAA CLARREO (TSIS) could be covered by CASS (VC). Notional mission is µ-wave, but Laser ranging opportunity Radar, radiometer combination (GSFC provides the radiometer) (at JPL) IIP for high resolution UV/VIS, also see CASS for stratospheric portion LIST(Harding) PATH GWOS (3 d winds) (Gentry) 800 IIP, Active NOAA interest, international collaboration, working of aircraft demo, IIP 4
