“…To provide a structured and holistic view on what CDRs are currently available/planned, and what the accuracy requirements should be to satisfy climate quality, the joint CEOS /CGMS Working Group on Climate (WGClimate) has established an ECV inventory [40]. The ECV inventory will subsequently make up the structure of the climate monitoring architecture for space-based observations [11,29]. This will be realized through the gap analysis to identify shortfalls and potential improvements for both current and future CDRs.…”

“…The generic validation strategy presented above can be mapped to the CORE-CLIMAX system maturity matrix (SMM) [11,57], under the "Formal Validation Report" and "Validation" in the subthemes of "User documentation" and "Uncertainty characterization," respectively. This mapping indicates the applicability of using the corresponding validation-relevant subthemes of SMM as the quality indicator for validation traceability (i.e., ValQI) for assessing how far the validation process is approaching the "best practice" (Figure 3b) [54].…”

“…The above two challenges have inspired two main groups of research focuses: (1) the quality assurance of climate data and information products (e.g., QA4ECV [7], QA4EO [8], GAIA-CLIM [9], FIDUCEO [10], CORE-CLIMAX [11], C3S EQC projects [12][13][14][15][16]); (2) the market value of climate services (EU-MACS [17,18], MARCO [18,19], EUPORIAS [20], C3S Sectoral Information System Projects [21]) (see the Appendix A for a list of key acronyms and abbreviations used in this paper). The prototyped quality assurance (QA) framework for climate data records has been recently developed [22] and implemented for a selection of 12 Essential Climate Variables (ECVs), with in total 24 products [23].…”

Climate services are becoming the backbone to translate climate knowledge, data & information into climate-informed decision-making at all levels, from public administrations to business operators. It is essential to assess the technical and scientific quality of the provided climate data and information products, including their value to users, to establish the relation of trust between providers of climate data and information and various downstream users. The climate data and information products (i.e., from satellite, in-situ and reanalysis) shall be fully traceable, adequately documented and uncertainty quantified and can provide sufficient guidance for users to address their specific needs and feedbacks. This paper discusses details on how to apply the quality assurance framework to deliver timely assessments of the quality and usability of Essential Climate Variable (ECV) products. It identifies an overarching structure for the quality assessment of single product ECVs (i.e., consists of only one single variable), multi-product ECVs (i.e., more than one single parameter), thematic products (i.e., water, energy and carbon cycles), as well as the usability assessment. To support a traceable climate service, other than rigorously evaluating the technical and scientific quality of ECV products, which represent the upstream of climate services, how the uncertainty propagates into the resulting benefit (utility) for the users of the climate service needs to be detailed.

These days cyberattack is a serious criminal offense and it is a hotly debated issue moreover. A man-in-the-middle-attack (MITM) is a kind of cyberattack where an unapproved outsider enters into an online correspondence between two users, remains escaped the two parties. The malware that is in the middle-attack often monitors and changes individual/classified information that was just realized by the two users. A man-in-the-middle-attack as a protocol is subjected to an outsider inside the system, which can access, read and change secret information without keeping any tress of manipulation. This issue is intense, and most of the cryptographic systems without having a decent authentication security are threatened to be hacked by the malware named MITM. This paper essentially includes the view of understanding the term of MITM; the current work is mainly emphasized to accumulate related data/information in a single article so that it can be a reference to conduct research further on this topic at college/undergraduate level. This paper likewise audits most cited research and survey articles on MITM recorded on 'Google Scholar'. The result showed that the MITM has correlation to the user behavior, in which this must be considered and careful understood for the way how to solve this problem. The motivation behind this paper is to help the readers for understanding and familiarizing the topic 'man-in-the-middle attack'.

“…This subsequently supports the improvement of forecasting climate change impacts. On the other hand, closing the cycles through SRS observation remains an outstanding scientific issue that requires high quality Climate Data Records (CDRs) of ECVs [21,22]. It is well recognized that satellite data often contain uncertainties caused by biases in sensors and retrieval algorithms [23], as well as inconsistencies between consecutive satellite missions with the same sensors, or between different sensors aiming at the same ECVs.…”
