The overarching goal of this project is to foster a closer collaboration between both the EO water cycle and hydrology community (especially those teams involved in developing novel high resolution EO data products) and the modelling community engaged in advancing “hyper resolution” modelling of the hydrological cycle at large scales (regional/continental). This project shall bring …
With this ITT ESA aims at exploring the full capacity of the latest EO satellite data, and in particular of the unprecedented wide variety of European satellite Earth observations, to better characterise and understand the drivers and complex underlaying processes leading to high impact multi-hazards with a focus on cascade and compound events as well …
Abstract submission is now open (12 Jul – 12 Sep) for the upcoming online workshop on Earth Observation for Ecosystem Accounting 2022, to take place in the afternoons (13:00 – 17:00 CET Rome time, 07:00 – 11:00 NY time) from 28 Nov to 1 Dec. The workshop will feature invited talks, open sessions with oral …
This activity aims to establish a reference, quality-controlled, open database of SAR spatio-temporal signatures of complex real-world targets (either natural or man-made), with high diversity, to serve a wide number of applications with societal relevance, respecting FAIR (findable, accessible, interoperable, reproducible) principles. Learn more about this Invitation To Tender on the esa-star Publication page.
Leveraging on the RACE experience, this activity aims to establish a dedicated mechanism to support the rapid design, development, testing and demonstration of novel EO-informed products and applications on different interdisciplinary thematic areas and perform flexible actions such as: Rapid initial exploratory tests and demonstrators of new products/indicators or new specific method, Rapid application tailoring …
The Carbon Science Cluster-RO is intended to support innovative scientific developments in the carbon research domain with special focus on the terrestrial carbon component as a direct response to the 1st Carbon Science Coordination meeting (June 2021) and as part of the ESA Carbon Science Cluster which aims at exploiting the full potential offered by …
Time to apply for the Earth Observation (EO) training course organised in collaboration between ESA and the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL): deadline for application is 15 July 2022. The course will take place on 19 – 23 September 2022 at the premises of the Andoya Space Centre (ASC) in Andenes, Norway. Intended for researchers, …
This study provides a unique opportunity for the wider international Earth Observation (EO) scientific community to participate and express their views and ideas in the elaboration of a new ESA EO Science Strategy. The new Strategy is expected to guide the selection and development of new future EO research satellites, and the scientific content and …
What is the mechanism linking the unexpected August 2021 rainfall on Greenland with snow and ice melt on the ice sheet? Researchers from GEUS (Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland), leading the Pre-Operational Sentinel-3 snow and ice products (SICE) project, highlighted a feedback framework where, before the rain, warm atmospheric rivers triggered melting which exposed darker …
ESA’s Earth System Data Lab (ESDL) has been providing a virtual lab to access a wide array of Earth observations across space, time, and variables. It consists of two elements: a data cube and an interface to execute a variety of analyses on the data cube. The new recently launched follow-on project, called DeepESDL, …
