Satellites: Metop-A
Subsystem: GRAS
Subject: instrument-maintenance
Detail: During the indicated period, the GRAS receiver onboard
Metop-A will undergo a series of tracking parameter tests aiming at
improving the signal characteristics of rising occultations. In
particular, the campaign aims at reducing vertical error
correlations of bending angles in the lower stratosphere, at the
same time minimizing side effects. During this period, the number of
daily occultations from Metop-A as well as the penetration of rising
occultations into the mid and lower troposphere might vary more than
usual. [Rev. 2]: End Time updated.

Satellites: Metop-A
Subsystem: GOME-2
Subject: general-announcement
Impact: risk-of-degradation
Detail: The Metop-A satellite with GOME-2 on-board is meanwhile
in a drifting orbit. As a consequence there will be periods in the
future during which the GOME-2 instrument will not be able to carry
out its daily solar calibration measurement. The first such period
will be from 26th January 2018 to 19th February 2018 (24 days).
During this period, the solar mean reference spectrum provided in
the GOME-2 level-1B product will be automatically replaced by a
modelled solar spectrum using information on solar activity from
Metop-B. Therefore it is expected that the product quality of both
level-1B and level-2 products might undergo slight changes during
this period. In addition, there will be a risk of degraded product
quality for GOME-2 Metop-A products during these days.

constellation of Meteosat satellites will be made. Meteosat-11 will
be taken into operations and the Meteosat satellites supporting the
various services will change. For full details (including
