The brief

The contract supports delivery of the MicroCarb exploitation phase through a structured programme of work packages covering validation, flux estimation, joint modelling, and ongoing project management.

Activities include the configuration and application of atmospheric transport models (e.g.

GEOS-Chem), integration and assimilation of satellite and ground-based observations, early ingestion and validation of MicroCarb data, and development of multi-satellite consistency assessments.

The work also includes characterisation of CO₂ fluxes and uncertainties through inverse modelling approaches, alongside development of joint CO₂-SIF inversion capability and supporting analytical frameworks.

Continuous project management, coordination with UK and international partners (including CNES), and representation in relevant programme forums are maintained throughout the delivery period
