| Description | 1. The following are key findings of the biogeochemical data assimilation work carried out in the past year: a) first demonstration that the assimilation of remotely sensed optical properties,(Kd) is a novel and advantageous approach for marine ecosystem simulations and understanding (Ciavatta et al., in revision); b) first demonstration that assimilation of ocean color can impact the model simulation of relevant carbon processes, such as the microbial loop and trophic web (Ciavatta et al., in revision) c) ocean color data assimilation is a useful tool to improve the estimation of i) Essential climate Variables (ECVs); ii) indicator of Good Ecological State (GES), and iii) carbon fluxes in the whole North West European shelf-sea. (Brewin, Ciavatta, Allen, et al, Plymouth Marine Laboratory, March 2014) 2. Assessment of state-of-the-art chemical transport model calculations of CO2 and CH4 against GOSAT satellite data. (Boesch, Parker and Hewson, Leicester, March 2014) 3. Generation of global multi-year CO2 and CH4 dataset from GOSAT. (Boesch, Parker and Hewson, Leicester, March 2014) 4. First observations of fire emission ratio of CO2/CH4 from space (with KCL). (Wooster, KCL; Boesch, Parker and Hewson, Leicester, March 2014) 5. Space-based surface flux estimates for CO2 and CH4 (Palmer et al Edinburgh; Chipperfield et al Leeds; Boesch, Parker and Hewson, Leicester, March 2014) 6. Assessment of biogenic emissions with long-term data of formaldeyhde from GOME-2. (Boesch, Parker and Hewson, Leicester, March 2014) 7. A climate projection for the northwest European shelf under high greenhouse gas concentrations: The NEMO-ERSEM coupled model was used to simulate the hydrodynamics and ecosystem of the northwest European shelf under a climate projection from 1980 to 2058. Atmospheric forcing was provided by the Hadley Centre's HadGEM2 model for a high greenhouse gas concentration scenario (IPCC-AR5 RCP8.5). The simulation was started in 1980 to allow validation against climatic conditions in the recent past. This is the first transient run of the coupled model for this region; earlier work involved simulating 10-20 year time slices at future time periods for comparison with past conditions. The transient approach removes uncertainties involved with model spin up and allows any emergent climate change signals to be identified compared to the variability of the system on annual to multi-decadal timescales. (Wakelin, National Oceanographic Centre Liverpool, March 2014) 8. That for the first time it has been shown possible to measure emissions ratios of smoke within wildfire plumes, including with CO2 as the reference species (Which is important as CO2 is the primary emitted product in such plumes, and the primary GHG). (M Wooster, Kings College London, March 2014) 9. We proposed a new, physically-based model to derive canopy gaps and canopy cover from airborne lidar data. Canopy gaps and cover are important properties relating to vegetation type and state for ecology, biodiversity, and habitat mapping and monitoring. Airborne lidar is increasingly widely-used for this, particularly by national mapping and monitoring agencies. Until now this has relied on empirical methods that need local calibration, and are therefore not general. We demonstrated that our method works extremely well over various forested regions in Australia and in China. Our method is currently being trialled for large-scale canopy mapping by the Queensland government. (Disney, Lewis et al, UCL, March 2014) 10. We demonstrated the application of terrestrial laser scanning for estimating above ground biomass in tropical forests, for the first time. We deployed a new laser scanner in Gabon, W. Africa and showed that we could reconstruct tree height, volume and mass more accurately than current survey methods. Our method therefore allows us to estimate tropical forest biomass independent of the allometric (scaling) relationships that currently underpin all estimates of tropical forest carbon stocks. These relationships rely on historical destructive measurements of around 1600 trees worldwide, with none in Africa and few over 70 cm in diameter. In 3 weeks we measured nearly 1000 trees, thus almost doubling the possible number of trees for deriving allometrics in the tropics. We will be extending these measurements across the tropics with our newly-acquired NERC funded lidar instrument. (Disney, Lewis et al, UCL, March 2014) 11. We used all the available Earth Observation data to show that there are only a few different types of fire behaviour globally. This is of great importance in understanding fire ecology and disturbance, but it is also an excellent test of the ability of current fire models embedded in land surface schemes. (Disney, Lewis et al, March 2014) 12. We demonstrated a new method to blend all kinds of Earth Observation data in order to improve global vegetation monitoring capabilities. The methods are statistically sound, and rely on physically based interpretation of the signals. The proposed method places particular emphasis in uncertainty quantification. We released the software tools to allow other researchers to use them, and have recently run a training course to aid this process. (Disney, Lewis et al, March 2014) |
| Exploitation Route | 1. The reanalysis of the North West European shelf biogeochemistry can be exploited to plan interventions to achieve good environmental status in the North West European Shelf (e.g. estimation of the maximum permissible loads from waste water treatment plants). (Brewin, Ciavatta, Allen, et al, Plymouth Marine Laboratory, March 2014) 8. Since the emission ratios are vital for emissions calculations - being able to directly measure them from space rather than just relying on lab measurements could potentially make GHG budgeting less uncertain in areas where fire is important (e.g. in Indonesia deforestation fires make up perhaps 80% of the GHG emission and it is the third largest GHG emitter worldwide). (M Wooster, Kings, 2014) 9.Method being tested by Australia govt monitoring programme for large-scale, via collaboration with Department of Science, Information Technology, Innovation and the Arts, Queensland, and the Australian Terrestrial Ecosystem Monitoring Network. http://www.tern.org.au/ (Disney, Lewis et al, UCL, March 2014) 10. There is wide interest/application of forest biomass estimates for biodiversity and conservation, REDD+ preparation and for commercial forestry. We are working with groups in all of these sectors to exploit our new methods and results. http://blog.geog.ucl.ac.uk/blog-entries/gabon-quantifying-forest-structure (Disney, Lewis et al, March 2014). 12. The optical EO data related to the land surface that will be provided by the COPERNICUS programme could be processed using our method, to improve on inter-sensor calibration, more robust atmospheric correction, and also providing more accurate land surface monitoring. (Disney, Lewis et al. UCL, March 2014) 1. The reanalysis of the North West European shelf biogeochemistry can be exploited by Institutional Agency and Policy Maker to better assess the Environmental Status of the marine ecosystem in accordance to the requirements of the Marine Strategy Framework Directive. (Brewin, Ciavatta, Allen, et al, Plymouth Marine Laboratory, March 2014) 8. Potential to develop new spaceborne missions to exploit this capability. (M Wooster, Kings, March 2014) 9. A practical, widely-applicable method that is suitable for wide-scale mapping by government monitoring and forestry agencies. (Disney, Lewis et al, UCL, March 2014) |

| Description | Application of new method We have developed a physical model that explains the change in reflectance due to fire, and that relates it to the impact of fire on vegetation. This is an important step, as burned area datasets are basically a binary map determining where (and when) fire happened, but not quantifying the impact of fire on the vegetation. |
