Simple arithmetic ... - Jun. 26, 2004 Opening the ERs of three provinces seems eminently reasonable; after all, the original opposition demand was to examine all the ERs, which was scaled down to the ERs of 25 provinces, and finally to three. Now multiply that by three, and we realize that to examine the ERs of three provinces will take at least 50 days or seven weeks (working seven days a week) to eight weeks (working six days a week). Thus, you have Walden Bello saying that while his original opinion was that Gloria had won, his suspicions were aroused by the majority's refusal to open "just three" ERs (he meant, of course, the ERs of three provinces). www.inq7.net /opi/2004/jun/26/text/opi_scmonsod-1-p.htm   (748 words)

eoPortal directory: ERS-2 (EUROPEAN REMOTE-SENSING SATELLITE-2) The ERS-2 satellite is essentially a copy of ERS-1 except that it includes a number of enhancements; it is also carrying a new payload instrument to measure the chemical composition of the atmosphere, named GOME (Global Ozone Monitoring Experiment). The measures implemented in Feb. 2000 to protect the satellite against further gyroscope failures have allowed the continuation of the ERS-2 operations, despite two major anomalies that took place in Jan. 2001. The PRARE ground station tracking network consists of 29 PRARE transponders in total (globally distributed), which are owned by 10 different international geodetic research groups (plus GFZ) and operated locally by co-operating scientific institutions. directory.eoportal.org /pres_ERS2EUROPEANREMOTESENSINGSATELLITE2.html   (748 words)

ESA Portal - GOME, ATSR and SAR keep watch over Etna In fact, the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data provided by ERS-1 and ERS-2 have been a new source of information for vulcanologists who use a complex technique called SAR interferometry, to track vertical movements of the volcano with a centimetre precision. It is now over 10 years since ESA’s ERS satellites first began providing environmental data. Says Wolfgang Lengert, ESA ERS Mission Coordinator, “no-one can say for sure when this latest eruption will stop but the valuable data supplied by 10 years of SAR data from the ERS satellites is one of the tools that will be used to better understand this volcano.” www.esa.int /export/esaCP/ESAJRC1VMOC_index_0.html   (748 words)

ERS-1 Mission Objectives: The European Remote Sensing satellite, ERS-1, is part of a family of multi-disciplinary Earth Observation Satellites (ERS-1, ERS-2, EnivSat-1). ERS-1 was the first European satellite to carry a radar altimeter. In its first three years, ERS-1 has revolutionized many areas of the Earth sciences and their practical applications. ilrs.gsfc.nasa.gov /satellite_missions/list_of_satellites/ers1   (748 words)

FindLaw - No. 02-299: Entergy Louisiana, Inc. v. Louisiana Public Service Comm'n - Amicus Invitation (Petition) FERC determined that Entergy received no net gain from its inclusion of ERS generation units in Schedule MSS-1 calculations and that inclusion of the generation units benefitted ratepayers by removing a disincentive to participation in the ERS program. A FERC proceeding during the mid-1990s addressed the question whether power-generation facilities in the ERS program could be deemed "available" for purposes of Schedule MSS-1, so that their capability would be considered when calculating an operating company's liability for deficiency payments, or eligibility to receive those payments. FERC has concluded that the Entergy operating companies' inclusion of ERS generation facilities when calculating Schedule MSS-1 deficiency payments, under the terms of the amended System Agreement, is just and reasonable. supreme.lp.findlaw.com /supreme_court/briefs/02-299/02-299.pet.ami.usa.html   (748 words)

Ship Routing For the global validation the significant wave heights of the ERS-1 and the TOPEX altimeter are compared with wave heights retrieved from the ERS-1 SAR data, and the wind corrections are compared with the winds of the ERS-1 scatterometer. ERS-1 SAR inverted wave mode spectra are assimilated into the global third generation wave model WAM to further improve the wave forecasts. The observed ocean wave spectra are retrieved from ERS-1 SAR wave mode spectra by a non-linear inversion scheme. envisat.esa.int /rootcollection/sysutil/01167.html   (4896 words)

CEOS`99 Abstract # 3 The radiometric stability of the ERS-1 SAR has been derived using the Kiruna ground station IRF measurements while for the ERS-2 SAR both the Kiruna and Neustrelitz ground stations have been used. The quality assessment measurements using the Neustrelitz ground station are only slightly worse than those derived using the ESA transponders (the Kiruna ground station azimuth ambiguities are only suitable for IRF total power measurements). For example, the stability using the Neustrelitz ground station gives an ERS-2 SAR stability of 0.35 dB while the average ESA transponder derived stability is 0.26 dB. www.estec.esa.nl /ceos99/abstracts/a00003.html   (413 words)

USE OF MULTITEMPORAL ERS-1 SAR DATA FOR RAINFOREST MONITORING In order to overcome problems caused by frequent cloud cover in the tropical regions, the ERS-1 C-band SAR data were to be tested for forest monitoring purposes. These investigations were carried out as part of ESA's ERS-1 pilot project PP2-D3, funded by the German Space Agency, and integrated within a cooperation with the National Brazilian Institute of Space Research (INPE). This contribution is mainly based on a paper presented in November 1996 at the International Seminar "On the Use and Application of ERS SAR in Latin America", Viña del Mar, Chile (Scales et al. ceos.cnes.fr:8100 /cdrom-97/ceos1/casestud/sar/rainfor.htm   (3430 words)

ERS-1 and 2 Interferometry Baseline Listing : It has been demonstrated that Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) Interferometry or INSAR is a significant potential application of ERS-1 SAR data, using the baseline listings, users can identify those repeat orbit combinations which satisfy the INSAR baseline criterion and are thus appropriate for various applications. INSI : SAR Interferometry (INSAR) is a hot topic which is rapidly evolving thanks to spectacular results achieved in fields such as monitoring of earthquakes and volcanoes, land subsidence, glacier dynamics, classification of different land types and construction of Digital Elevation Models (DEM's) of the Earth's surface. earth.esa.int /applications/interferometry.html   (207 words)

CNN - Managing Generation X - April 20, 1999 Frank Caccamo, 59, corporate vice president and CIO of the Reynolds & Reynolds Co., an information management systems firm in Dayton, Ohio, now sees the ways in which Gen X-ers (who comprise between 30 percent to 40 percent of his IT staff) approach their worklives as a net plus for his business. As an example of how Gen X-ers function differently within the corporate environment, Caccamo cites a Gen X-er who came to him and lobbied heavily for a shot at a job for which he was not being actively considered. "These meetings are in direct response to requests from IT employees," says Caccamo, and "the whole employee base gets a lot out of it." Sometimes the employees perform skits at the meetings, and members of the leadership team will wear silly costumes. www.cnn.com /TECH/computing/9904/20/genx.idg   (207 words)

Earthnet Online Eric Rignot of NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) in California and University of Kansas scientist Pannir Kanagaratnam measured glacier velocities using Radarsat-1’s radar interferometry data collected in fall 2000 and spring and summer 2005, ERS-1 and ERS-2 data collected in winter 1996 and Envisat data from summer 2004. Using satellite data collected between 1996 and 2005 by ESA’s European Remote Sensing satellites ERS-1 and ERS-2, ESA’s Envisat Advanced Synthetic Aperture Radar (ASAR) and Canada’s Radarsat-1, scientists learned Greenland glaciers are melting into the sea twice as fast as previously believed. A cold wave swooped through the Scandinavian region last week bringing about sub-zero temperatures and blanketing the area in snow and ice, which caused Swedish ports to freeze. earth.esa.int   (428 words)

WDC Remote Sensing at DFD-DLR On behalf of ESA, the DLR Antarctic Receiving Station at the O'Higgins base was acquiring additional GOME instrument data from the ERS-2 satellite from October 11 to December 3, 2003. Due to the failure of the tape recorder of ERS-2 on June 22, 2003 the data coverage of GOME had been limited to the ESA Ground station network in the northern hemisphere (Latest news on ERS-2 can be found here).

ERS2 The second European Remote Sensing Satellite ERS-2, launched on 20 April 1995, operates in a sun-synchronous, near-polar orbit at an altitude of 785 km and an inclination of 98.5 degrees (known as the reference orbit). ERS-2 is almost identical to the European Remote Sensing Satellite ERS-1 launched in 1991. ERS-2 is capable of measuring, on a global scale the Earth's atmospheric and surface properties with a high degree of accuracy. www.angelfire.com /ma3/spacepatch/ERS2.html   (296 words)

ERS-1 In comparison to contemporary satellite systems, the ERS-1 (and, now, the ERS-2 too) is unique in the simultaneous measurement of certain parameters, including those of sea state, sea surface winds, sea surface temperature, ocean circulation and sea and ice level, as well as all-weather imaging of ocean, ice and land. The volume of data produced by ERS-1 is enormous: over one million bits per second just from the "low bit rate" sensors and 100 million bits per second from the Synthetic Aperture radar (SAR). Initially of scientific interest, the (applicative) projects developed using ERS data have demonstrated that practical and even commercially viable applications are possible today. www.asi.it /html/eng/asicgs/remotesens/ers_m1.html   (296 words)
