How satellite data is helping farmers fight drought and grow smarter

Satellite-derived humidity indices could help smallholder farmers in Panama reduce climate-related losses. The concept—Cosechas 4.0—was one of eight projects selected for support at InnovaInvest: Copernicus Edition, an event connecting researchers and entrepreneurs with investors to address environmental challenges in Latin America.

Nordic collaboration enhances Arctic sea ice forecasting for safer navigation

With rising temperatures and decreasing sea ice, the Arctic shipping season is steadily being extended, though conditions continue to be challenging. A research collaboration across the European Nordic countries develops a sea ice modelling tool that helps the shipping industry estimate risks. The tool also calculates the climate indicator for sea ice to predict future…
