#dmsp — Public Fediverse posts

As is the status quo in the chaos of the #TrumpRegime, confusion abounds about whether the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program will continue to share data with #NOAA and #NASA.
In the past, both the Pentagon and NOAA knew they needed global weather coverage, and agree to split responsibilities and share the data so the could spread the cost between their budgets. #DMSP for the #DOD and #POES and #GOES for #NOAA.
It was a win for everyone. Better #storm tracking, better #forecasting at home and in foreign locations for the #military.
Then #Trump tried to destroy it because neither he and all his orbiters are too stupid to understand how vital this is not just to the economy, but to #life. Until someone stopped them:

🚧Urgent notice to all SSMIS product users 🚧

We've just been informed that #SSMIS from the US #DMSP satellite will stop to be distributed on Monday 30th June 2025.

Consequently, we advise SSMIS only-based #SeaIce products users to urgently change.

"They identified the bloom-forming #Pelagophyceae algae as potentially abundant, important producers of a compound called #DMSP... this is the main source of a #climate active gas called #dimethylsulfide (#DMS), which is known as the smell of the seaside."
