Eumetsat Japanese Space Agency To Cooperate On Greenhouse Gas Eumetsat and the japan aerospace exploration agency (jaxa) today signed an agreement which will result in the agencies working closely together to monitor greenhouse gases in the earth’s atmosphere. Agreement with the european meteorological organization (eumetsat) on remote sensing of greenhouse gases and related missions (may 16, 2019: jaxa announcement) [japanese only].
Eumetsat Japanese Space Agency To Cooperate On Greenhouse Gas The european organization for the exploitation of meteorological satellites (eumetsat) is responsible for the development of the operational ground segment (with contributions from esa) and the co2m system operations during commissioning and the routine phase. The mission, will aid in the understanding of the rate of climate change by monitoring greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, as well as improve our understanding of the water cycle which is essential for numerical weather prediction (nwp). The global observing satellite for greenhouse gases and water cycle (gosat gw, “ibuki gw”), jointly developed by the ministry of the environment of japan (moe), the national institute for environmental studies (nies), and the japan aerospace exploration agency (jaxa), was successfully launched on june 29, 2025 (jst). nies has recently completed an initial analysis of focus mode observation. The japan aerospace exploration agency (jaxa) successfully confirmed the critical operations phase *1 of the global observing satellite for greenhouse gases and water cycle "ibuki gw" (gosat gw).

The japanese global observing satellite for greenhouse gases and water cycle (gosat gw) will be an earth observing satellite to conduct global observations of atmospheric carbon dioxide (co 2), methane (ch 4), and nitrogen dioxide (no 2) simultaneously from a single platform. Eumetsat and the japan aerospace exploration agency (jaxa) have signed an agreement which will result in the agencies working closely together to monitor greenhouse gases in the earth’s atmosphere. Japan plans to increase the deployment of satellites to monitor greenhouse gas emissions across asia, aiming to encourage the adoption of japanese energy saving technologies in the future. Jaxa has started development of amsr3 on the gosat gw satellite since december 2019. the gosat gw satellite will carry amsr3 and tanso 3 (ghg mission led by moe & nies) and is to be launched in jfy2023.
