Virtual Event: Using ECMWF's Forecasts (UEF2020)

CAMS, high-quality information about air composition in support of COVID-19 R&D

Speaker

Vincent-Henri Peuch (ECMWF)

Description

CAMS is the Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service. It is implemented by ECMWF on behalf of the European Commission and delivers information about atmospheric composition, emissions and surface fluxes as well as solar radiation and climate forcing based on Earth Observation. CAMS products are delivered both by ECMWF and by a wide range of contractors distributed in Europe. They are open and free-of-charge and most can be accessed through the Atmosphere Data Store (http://ads.atmosphere.copernicus.eu). This talk will discuss the main CAMS products, their performance and how they can be used especially in the context of the current COVID-19 crisis both in Europe and worldwide.
