| Abstract |
ADEOS-II is a Japanese (JAXA, formerly NASDA) Earth environmental observation satellite, a successor mission to ADEOS with international cooperation. Overall objectives are to provide and improve Earth observation services with advanced payload instruments.
The science objectives of ADEOS-II are to acquire data contributing for international global change research (carbon cycle and the water and energy cycle), as well as for applications in such fields as meteorology and fishery. ADEOS-II is the Japanese contribution in the framework of the International Earth Observation System (IEOS). Other parts of IEOS are EOS (USA), and the ENVISAT and MetOp programs of ESA and EUMETSAT, respectively. The ADEOS-II mission, also referred to as Midori-II, is dedicated to the following programs: WCRP/GEWEX & CLIVAR, IGBP and GCOS.
