🍂🏔️ What better place to exchange ideas than the Tyrolean mountains in early autumn?

We visited the Dept. of Ecology at Uni Innsbruck, sharing research, exploring synergies, and learning about the impressive FAIR site. 🌿🌲

Thanks @biomet.bsky.social for the warm welcome and the tour!

👨‍🏫 Our teammates Nirajan Luintel & Emanuel Bueechi helped train the next generation of Earth Observation scientists at ESA’s 14th Advanced Course on Land Remote Sensing for Agriculture 🚜

🌾 They shared insights on drought monitoring & crop yield forecasting 💻

🛰️ Great to engage with EO enthusiasts! 🌍

🌿🛰️ Our team joined the MAC1 Conference at @inrae-france.bsky.social Bordeaux

🛰️ @ruxizotta.bsky.social presented improvements to microwave-based VOD estimates using optimised LPRM settings.
📡 @nicolasfbader.bsky.social showed how GNSS signals help track canopy water in beech forests.

🌡️ Increasing drought, heatwave, and wildfire events require more attention. In the project Clim4Cast, we develop new forecasting systems for Central Europe and find solutions to tackle these disasters.

📢 We discussed these results and identified potential improvements with stakeholders last week.

🌲🍃 It's #WorldForestDay 2025 🍂🌳

📉 Forests are changing fast. This animation shows deforestation in Brazil, using Landsat and VODCA2GPP.

🌍 Long-term satellite data help us understand climate impacts and ecosystem change.
