GOES-17 ABI Loop Heat Pipe anomaly will impact bands 8 through 16 in the given time period every day around 12:40 UTC. There will be a gradual degradation in image quality over one or several images with some complete outages. This process will cycle through varied degradation through November 30, 2019. The duration of the degradation and outage periods will vary by channel and by date. |

GOME-2 |
|
general-announcement |
|
data-unavailable |
|
The Metop-A satellite with GOME-2 on-board is currently in drifting orbit. As a consequence there are periods during which the GOME-2 instrument is not able to carry out its daily solar calibration measurement. The third such period will be from 14 November 2019 to 14 April 2020. During this period, the solar mean reference spectrum provided in the Metop-A 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 quality of both level-1B and level-2 products might undergo slight changes during this period, and there will be an associated risk of degraded product quality for Metop-A GOME-2 products. |
