SeasFire: Earth System Deep learning for Seasonal Fire Forecasting in Europe 

Prime company: NATIONAL OBSERVATORY OF ATHENS (GR)

The SeasFire project aims to explore and capture potential spatio-temporal asynchronous links happening between pre-occurring and non-overlapping atmospheric conditions and European fire regimes to predict the seasonal burned areas sizes in Europe by leveraging two major advancements of our time: a) the availability of a huge amount of satellite data with a good spatio-temporal resolution, …

Biodiversity in the Open Ocean: Mapping, Monitoring and Modelling (BOOMS)

Prime company: Plymouth Marine Laboratory (GB)

Increasing pressure due to anthropogenic drivers is leading to a reduction of global biodiversity and its associated benefits at the planetary scale. In open ocean (seafloor depth greater than 200 m) the most important direct drivers of biodiversity loss is fishing and extraction of seafood, with a lesser but rapidly increasing importance of climate change, …

Examining GReenland’s Ice Marginal Lakes under a changing climate (GRIML)

Prime company: GEOLOGICAL SURVEY OF DENMARK AND GREENLAND (DK)

Living Planet Fellowship research project carried out by Penelope How. Sea level is predicted to rise drastically by 2100, with significant contribution from the melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet. In these predictions, melt runoff is assumed to contribute directly to sea level change, with little consideration for meltwater storage at the terrestrial margin of …

Space4SafeSea

Prime company: e-Odyn (FR)

The ocean surface circulation with all its time-space complexity is the open-air limb of the oceanic mass transport. Surface currents carry heat (climate), plankton (marine biology), plastic (pollution). As well wave-current interactions lead to significant sea state variability and strong wave height gradients inside relatively small geographic zones. The complex behaviour of the coupled wave-current …

MedEOS – Mediterranean coastal water monitoring

Prime company: Deimos Engineering and Systems (ES)

This activity is part of the ESA Regional Initiatives programme. Its objective is to support the implementation of regional priorities in the Mediterranean region by i) developing and delivering a customized set of EO based products that fully exploit the large volumes of EO data from the Sentinel missions and other EO missions and ii) …

Which future for altimetry?

A seminal article on the progress of satellite altimetry and its future has been published on-line in Advances in Space Research on 23 March 2021. It is authored by the International Altimetry Team, which is composed of more than 360 co-authors. In 2018, in Ponta Delgada, the Azores, Portugal, celebrations took place for 25 years …
