Every five years, they are to issue so-called ‘nationally determined contributions’ (NDCs), describing their actions to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and adapt to climate change impacts. This success is an important achievement, as the OCO missions were designed to measure carbon emissions at much larger spatial scales.
