CLIMATE ADAPTATION, EXTREMES, MULTI-HAZARDS AND GEO-HAZARDS SCIENCE – ARCEME

Prime company: Leipzig University (DE)

Extreme weather and climate hazard can cause dramatic impacts on both natural ecosystems and human wellbeing and/or infrastructure and thereby harm society as a whole. Of particular concern are compound weather and climate extreme events, where the hazardous conditions of various extreme events combine and may have more detrimental effects than individual extremes. Increasing the …

Combining a Stochastic LAgrangian Model of Marine Particles with ESA’s Big Data to Understand the Effects of a ChaNging Ocean on the PlanKtonic Food Web (SLAM DUNK)

Prime company: UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD (GB)

The oceans, a major sink of carbon dioxide (CO2), rely on a set of food web processes that generate gravitational sinking particles to transfer CO2 from the atmosphere to the deep ocean. These processes are collectively known as the biological carbon pump (BCP) and have become a focal point of research as anthropogenic CO2 emissions …

Monitoring Atmospheric Anomalies from Space: A Topological Approach (MAASTA)

Prime company: FINNISH METEOROLOGICAL INSTITUTE (FI)

Carbon dioxide (CO₂) has experienced an alarming increase since the Industrial Revolution due to anthropogenic factors like fossil fuel combustion and deforestation. Before the Industrial Revolution, atmospheric CO₂ levels were relatively stable, around 280 parts per million (ppm). By the 21st century, human activities have increased CO₂ concentrations beyond 400 ppm, reaching levels not seen …
