SMOS adds long-term view on carbon stored in forests
Data from ESA’s Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity (SMOS) mission can be used to estimate how much carbon is stored in forests – and a study has improved our understanding of how reliable this proxy is and how long-term datasets from SMOS can help us to monitor this valuable resource.

MicroCarb satellite launches to map global carbon dioxide emissions from space
The MicroCarb satellite, developed by the French space agency CNES in partnership with the UK Space Agency, has been successfully launched from Europe's Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana. As Europe's first mission dedicated to monitoring and mapping atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2), MicroCarb aims to deliver high-precision measurements to better understand the sources and sinks of this critical China unveils decades spanning Landsat dataset to advance environmental research
China has released a comprehensive Landsat composite dataset covering nearly four decades of Earth observations. Spanning from 1985 to 2023, the new 30-meter resolution dataset introduces the first seamless, annual Leaf-On Landsat data cube for the country, significantly enhancing access to high-quality satellite imagery for environmental and land use studies.
