Emissions Monitoring from Space and Ground Conference 2026
Start Date:
Oct. 26, 2026
City:
Frascati
Country:
Italy
Region:
Europe
Description:
This conference, co-organised by ESA, EEA, CAMS and EUMETSAT, will bring together several European and international stakeholders involved in the monitoring, reporting, and verification of greenhouse gases and air pollutants emissions. The event will span the observations, modelling, national inventory and reporting, operational service, and policy communities.
Participants will be able to attend state-of-the-art presentations about emission estimations based on spaceborne and ground-based observations, atmospheric modelling, and integrated monitoring systems, covering applications ranging from national emission inventories to sector specific sources. The event will serve as a platform for collaboration and knowledge exchange, helping to bridge scientific advances, operational implementation, and policy needs.
The workshop will be structured around the following thematic sessions:
* Top-Down inventories supporting national inventories: from R&D to operational systems.
* Training/workshop on understanding the inversion methodologies and underlying observations (aimed at inventory compilers and anyone interested in using inversion-based emissions).
* Link between inversions and LULUCF communities.
* Space missions and ground networks: status and products.
* Methane from local and diffuse sources.
* CO2 monitoring at facility scale — EU-ETS and CBAM perspective.
* Sectoral Deep Dives.
* Ancillary data for improving emission estimates.
Targeted Audience:
The Emissions Monitoring from Space and Ground is a free conference, open to all the interdisciplinary and cross-sectoral communities of experts working on GHG and air pollutants emissions detection, quantification, and reporting.
Oral presentations will be invitation-only from the Programme Committee.
Acceptance to present in the poster session is determined by the Programme Committee, following review of submitted abstracts.
We strongly encourage in-person participation. A broadcast of the event is foreseen; details will follow soon.
Although there is no participation/registration fee, participants are expected to finance their own travel and accommodation expenses.
