Aquarius mission from NASA
The Aquarius mission was designed to better understand the water cycle, how the ocean circulation works (temperature, salinity...) and their influence on climate. It was launched in June 2011and is now in orbit, giving its first results. Last week, the Aquarius team already gave results on the effect of the tropical storm Lee in New Orleans (sept. 2-3 2011): the Aquarius instruments detected a low-salinity level between the Mississippi river delta and the Florida panhandle. This is likely to…

They analyzed measurements from the Multiangle Imaging SpectroRadiometer which is part of Terra Satellite; This instrument has been collecting data from clouds around the Earth since more than a decade. Davies and Molloy found out that the average cloud altitude decreased of 1% over the last decade (30 to 40 meters). Of course the record is too short…See More
