Abstract
The Fluorescence Explorer (FLEX) mission has been selected as ESA's 8th Earth Explorer mission. The primary objectives of the mission are to provide global estimates of vegetation fluorescence, actual photosynthetic activity, and vegetation stress. FLEX will fly in tandem formation with Sentinel-3 providing ancillary data for atmospheric characterization and correction, vegetation related spectral indices, and land surface temperature. The purpose of this manuscript is to describe the FLEX mission, the mission elements and the FLORIS instrument design and performances and related products.
