Satellites: Metop-A
Subsystem: GOME-2
Subject: general-announcement
Impact: data-degraded
Detail: The Metop-A satellite with GOME-2 on-board is currently in drifting orbit. As a consequence there are periods during which the GOME-2 instrument will not be able to carry out its daily solar calibration measurement. The second such period will be from 31 December 2018 to 17 March 2019. During this period, the solar mean reference spectrum provided in the Metop-A GOME-2 level-1B product will be automatically replaced by a modelled solar spectrum using information on solar activity from Metop-B. Therefore, it is expected that the quality of both level-1B and level-2 products might undergo slight changes during this period, and there will be an associated risk of degraded product quality for Metop-A GOME-2 products.
