#EarthCARE is launching soon! Did you know that according to @jaxa_en tradition, satellites are also given nicknames in addition to their ‘official’ names. The nickname chosen for EarthCARE is ‘Hakuryu’ or ‘White Dragon’ in Japanese. The name ‘Hakuryu’ embodies the distinctive characteristics of the satellite's appearance, with its white body and solar panel resembling a long tail. In Japanese mythology, dragons are ancient and divine creatures that govern water and fly in the sky: an appropriate metaphor for a mission that will study clouds and aerosols. Additionally, the launch year of EarthCARE in 2024 coincides with the Japanese Year of the Dragon!

Today we got the change to say goodbye to the #EarthExplorer #EarthCARE satellite - currently in @AirbusSpace cleanroom. We will share some images soon but in the meantime, let us share what makes this mission a very cool (it has 4 instruments!) and a very important one (for our climate research): esa.int/Applications/Observi…

Temperature anomalies over the last month (left), 3 months (center), and 12 months (right) in the #Arctic [Data from @CopernicusECMWF ERA5 reanalysis]
Three polar stereographic maps showing 2-m air temperature anomalies in the Arctic Circle for April 2022, February to April 2022, and May 2021 to April 2022. Most areas are warmer than average, except near the North Pole last month.

🔥 Do you know what are the positives and negatives of wildfires and ‘black carbon’? Do you know what ‘zombie fires’ are and why ‘mega fires’ are becoming more likely? @m_parrington explains it all in the latest episode of @4loveofweather. Listen here👉 bit.ly/3wtgSVk

Zombie fires with Dr Mark Parrington | For the love of weather

Dr Mark Parrington is a senior scientist in the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) Development Section at ECMWF working on wildfire emissions.

First high latitude (~67 N) thermal hotspots of 2022 detected by #AquaMODIS🛰️ on 11 May go.nasa.gov/3srkdD5 in the Sakha Republic. Not clear from this imagery if they are fires but strong possibility for the start of the #ArcticFire #wildfire #WildfireAwarenessMonth
