Call for Papers: ROMEX Special Issue in Atmospheric Measurement Techniques (AMT)
Dear all,
I’m pleased to announce that the Atmospheric Measurement Techniques (AMT) special issue titled
“The Radio Occultation Modeling EXperiment (ROMEX): observational quality, processing, and numerical weather prediction (NWP) applications”
is now open for submissions.
ROMEX, an IROWG-led initiative, aims to assess the impact of ~35,000 daily radio occultation (RO) profiles—collected from 13 missions during September–November 2022—on numerical weather prediction. This international campaign involves contributions from data providers, processing centers, and forecasting institutions across the global research and operational communities.
The special issue welcomes papers using ROMEX data on topics including, but not limited to:
-
RO data quality and processing
-
Evaluation and validation of RO datasets
-
Impact studies in NWP and other atmospheric applications
Submission is open from 1 May 2025 to 31 December 2026 (extensions possible).
🔗 Submit here: https://editor.copernicus.org/AMT/manuscript_registration
Please ensure the correct special issue title is selected during submission. Editorial assignment follows a first-come, first-served policy.
📄 A full description of the special issue is available at:
https://www.atmospheric-measurement-techniques.net/articles_and_preprints/scheduled_sis.html# (under 2025)
We look forward to your contributions!

Third GNSS-PRO Workshop in November – Registration is now open
Dear all,
The “3rd GNSS Polarimetric Radio Occultations Workshop” will take place 10-12 November 2025, at the EUMETSAT headquarters in Darmstadt, Germany. Registration is now available at the workshop main page.
This third workshop follows on to the “2nd GNSS Polarimetric Radio Occultation workshop” from 2023. It represents a forum for addressing multiple uses and applications that have been studied in the seven years that polarimetric RO (PRO) data have been available, align the presentation of these results, and prepare recommendations for meteorological, space and research organizations (e.g., CGMS agencies, the EUMETSAT ROM SAF) and satellite data providers.
The workshop will feature presentations and discussions in the following areas:
While the workshop will offer a hybrid attendance format, in-person attendance is encouraged. If you would like to present materials at the workshop, you can enter (even a tentative) title at the time of registration. An abstract is not required. Further information and an agenda will be provided after registration closes.
With kind regards,
Christian Marquardt on behalf of Estel Cardellach (IEEC) and Joe Turk (JPL)
