Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce a two days International Workshop on Improving GNSS and SAR tropospheric products for Meteorology, to be held in Luxembourg, Luxembourg running from 25 -26 February, 2020.
In the workshop, we are aiming to focus in on four topics that we will ask individuals/groups to present their findings on either in oral or poster.
Session 1: Multipath effects on estimates of propagation delays due to the neutral atmosphere
Keynote Speaker: Professor Gunnar Elegred
Title: Multipath effects on estimates of propagation delays due to the neutral atmosphere
Chalmers University of Technology, Earth and Space Sciences, Sweden
Keynote Speaker: Dr. Tim Springer
Title: Multi-GNSS Satellite Products and open Issues with Galileo and BeiDou Data Processing

Session 2: Studies of SAR derived slant delay and atmospheric water vapour fields
Keynote Speaker: Professor Ramon Hanssen
Title: Turbulence Kinetic Energy of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer estimated by satellite SAR interferometry
Technical University of Delft, Geoscience and Remote Sensing, Netherlands
Session 3: Assimilation of GNSS and SAR tropospheric products into NWP models
