The #CopernicusClimate Change Service (#C3S) & #CopernicusAtmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS), implemented by #ECMWF.
About us
The Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) and the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) are two services of the European Union’s Copernicus Earth Observation Programme implemented by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts on behalf of the European Commission. The Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) provides authoritative information about the world’s past, present and future climate. Our freely accessible high-quality data, tools and information help businesses, scientists and policymakers to mitigate and adapt to the effects of climate change. We directly support businesses in climate-sensitive sectors, such as energy, health and insurance, to develop valuable tools for real-world problems. This stimulates other organisations to create their own applications based on our data. climate.copernicus.eu The Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) provides quality-controlled information related to air pollution and health, solar energy, greenhouse gases and climate forcing, across the world. We support policymakers, businesses and citizens by providing atmospheric environmental information, available as analyses and forecasts. We work with a diverse range of industries which use our information products to provide a set of unrivalled services. These include numerous air quality apps, wildfire analysis and solar radiation evaluation among many others. atmosphere.copernicus.eu We invite all businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises, to get in touch to find out how data can be used to create commercially viable products with the aim of protecting and sustaining our environment.

On this #WorldCleanAirDay, let's reflect on the importance of air quality. 🌬️The air we breathe significantly impacts our health, with chronic exposure to polluted air reducing life expectancy by more than two years in the most affected regions. 💭Air pollution is a global challenge, transcending borders as it moves with atmospheric wind patterns. Through state-of-the-art computer models and millions of daily observations, the #CopernicusAtmosphere Monitoring Service provides accurate, and open data, on air quality worldwide. 📉These forecasts are essential for national air quality predictions, smartphone applications, and policy-making tools, reaching millions of users globally every day.

2024 Boreal Summer Seasonal Highlights 🌡 The global-average temperature for June to August 2024 was the highest on record at 0.69°C above the 1991-2020 average for these three months, surpassing the previous record from 2023 (0.66°C). 🌡 The European-average temperature for June-August 2024 was the highest on record for the season at 1.54°C above the 1991-2020 average, exceeding the previous record from 2022 (1.34°C). 💧 Summer 2024 was predominantly wetter than average in western and northern Europe. ☀️ Most of the Mediterranean region and Eastern Europe saw drier-than-average conditions throughout the season, in some cases associated to drought.

The #CopernicusClimate Change Service (#C3S) has published its monthly climate bulletin for August 2024, with data on sea ice extent. Last month: ❄️ #Antarctic sea ice extent was 7% below average, the second-lowest extent for August on record. ❄️ #Arctic sea ice was 17% below average, ranking fourth lowest for August on record, and distinctly lower than in 2021-2023. ❄️ Sea ice concentration anomalies were below average across virtually all of the Arctic Ocean.

The #CopernicusClimate Change Service's (#C3S) monthly climate bulletin is out now, with updates on precipitation, relative humidity, and soil moisture in August. In Europe: 💧 August 2024 was drier than average over most of continental Europe including southern UK and Ireland, the Alps, the Balkans, northwest Russia and eastern Fennoscandia, with areas in the south and east experiencing drought and wildfires. 💧 Iceland, northern UK and Ireland, much of Fennoscandia, the northern seaboard of continental Europe as well as western Russia and Türkiye saw above-average precipitation, in some cases, leading to floods and damage. Beyond Europe: 💧 August 2024 was wetter than average over parts of North America, central Russia, eastern China, and eastern Australia. 💧 The Indian subcontinent was hit by monsoon rains and Cyclone Asna. 💧 Heavy rainfall led to flooding in Sudan, Ethiopia and Eritrea. Japan was hit by Typhoon Shanshan. You can find more, including access to the data, graphs and maps and updates on hydrological indicators on our monthly bulletin page on the C3S website. 👉 https://lnkd.in/eMbncerv

The #CopernicusClimate Change Service (#C3S) has published its monthly climate bulletin for August 2024, with data on surface air temperatures. Last month: 🌡 was the joint-warmest August globally (together with August 2023), at 0.71°C above the 1991-2020 average; 🌡 was 1.51°C above the pre-industrial level; 🌡 kept 2024 on track to be the warmest year on record, with the global average temperature anomaly for January-August 2024 0.70°C above the 1991-2020 average, which is the highest on record for this period and 0.23°C warmer than the same period in 2023.

The annual #ozonehole over the #Antarctic is developing again. If you want to keep track, visit our website for all the latest charts and details: https://lnkd.in/eQqGNa8m There you will also find the daily updated 3D rendering of the ozone hole evolution in 2024. Some background: 🌍 The ozone layer protects life on Earth from harmful solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation. In the late 20th century, human emissions of chemicals known as ozone-depleting substances (ODSs), in particular halocarbons, adversely affected the amount of ozone molecules in the atmosphere, most notably resulting in the dramatic annual ozone hole over the Antarctic region. ✒️ The Montreal Protocol, which came into force in 1989, has curbed the amount of ODSs in the atmosphere, resulting in the slow recovery of the ozone layer. 🛰️ The #CopernicusAtmosphere Service combines measurements from satellite instruments with its numerical models of the atmosphere to provide quality-assured information about the state of the ozone layer.
