New constraints on the Amazonian carbon balance from airborne observations of the stable isotopes of CO2 (ASICA)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2020,
Severe droughts in Amazonia in 2005 and 2010 caused widespread loss of carbon from the terrestrial biosphere. This loss, almost twice the annual fossil fuel CO2 emissions in the EU, suggests a large sensitivity of the Amazonian carbon balance to a predicted more intense drought regime in the next decades. This is a dangerous inference though, as there is no scientific consensus on the most basic m ...

Seasonal-to-decadal climate Prediction for the improvement of European Climate Services (SPECS)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2017,
The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) sponsored the Global Framework on Climate Services (GFCS) where the need for actionable climate information for periods from several months up to several years for economic, industrial and political planning has been expressed. However, progress in seasonal forecasting has been slow and decadal forecasting is still incipient. At the same time, new model ...

Raising the alert about critical feedbacks between climate and long-term land use change in the Amazon (AMAZALERT)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2011, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2014,
AMAZALERT will enable raising the alert about critical feedbacks between climate, society, land-use change, vegetation change, water availability and policies in Amazonia. We will:1) analyze and improve coupled models of global climate and Amazon, land use, vegetation and socio-economic drivers to quantify anthropogenic and climate induced land-use and land cover change and non-linear, irreversibl ...

Merging Hydrologic models and EO data for reliable information on Water (MyWater)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,
In the entire world we are experiencing changing water resources needs mainly as a result of changes in land use. In developing countries the occupation of natural areas by agriculture is a major cause; economical reasons pushed by world globalization play also a major role. In both cases further global changes are expected as a result of climate change.Water availability is essential for socio-ec ...
