CHINA'S NEW METEOROLOGICAL SATELLITE MONITORS GLOBAL CARBON EMISSIONS

SHOTLIST: 1. various of weather satellite "Fengyun-3D" 2. various of Long March-4C rocket 3. various of rocket, satellite being transported to launch site 4. various of blastoff of rocket STORYLINE: China on Wednesday sent a weather satellite into space, which can monitor global greenhouse gas emissions with high accuracy. A Long March-4C rocket carrying the satellite dubbed "Fengyun-3D" blasted off from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in northern China's Shanxi Province. The satellite was confirmed to have enter orbit. This was the 16th Fengyun weather satellite to be successfully launched by China. The launch marked the 254th mission by the Long March rocket series. The satellite carries hyper-spectral greenhouse gas monitoring equipment. It can monitor greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and carbon monoxide. The data it collected can be used for studies on the source of greenhouse gases and their impact on the climate. It will also provide key data for studying global carbon cycling. The launch of the satellite represents an enormous leap in available data on greenhouse gases, now drawn largely from scattered ground stations. The satellite will form a network with three Fengyun-3 series satellites already in space, which can shorten the update time for global weather forecasts to four hours from the current six. Fengyun-3D is among China's second generation of Polar-Orbiting Meteorological Satellites and forms a major part of the global space-based meteorological observation system.
