EUMETSAT is the European operational space agency responsible for monitoring the weather, climate and the environment. EUMETSAT is an intergovernmental organisation based in Darmstadt, Germany, with 30 member states. EUMETSAT operates the geostationary satellites Meteosat-10, -11 and -12 over Europe and Africa, and Meteosat-9 over the Indian Ocean. It also operates two Metop satellites in polar orbit as part of the Initial Joint Polar System (IJPS), shared with the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
The Pierre-Simon Laplace Institute (IPSL) was founded in 1995 by Gérard Mégie and his colleagues to bring together and coordinate research efforts in the natural sciences relating to climate in the Île-de-France region, as environmental challenges are too great for individual laboratories to tackle on their own.
