AbstractDuring the 1990's a number of russian meteorological and environmental satellite missions is scheduled which will be of potential benefit to climate studies. On-board instruments to be flown on “Meteor”, “Goms”, “Resurs” and “Okean” series of satellites operated by the Committee for Hydrometeorology and Environment Monitoring of the Russian Federation (Roskomgidromet) will provide observations and soundings relevant to the radiation budget and cloud studies, ocean-atmosphere interaction and middle atmosphere monitoring. The current and planned sensor capabilities for carrying out some of these observational programmes are presented in this paper. An outline of “Meteor-3/TOMS” and “Scarab” projects is given as an example of mutually fruitful international cooperation to provide a valuable input in acquisition of data related to Global Change and Climate studies.
