14/02/2024 | On the future of agricultural diversity and sustainability: Dr. Irina Solovieva and Nadja Kasperczyk present a vision for diverse value chains in the organic sector

The EU project  BioValue 🌱 was actively represented by two ZEU colleagues at #BioFach2024, a global trade fair for organic food in Nuremberg, Germany. We are delighted to share with you the highlights of our recent session at BioFach 2024 entitled "New crops - new opportunities for the organic sector: a vision for diverse value chains". Our session focussed on the future of agricultural diversity and sustainability.

The focus was on the results of BioValue, which were presented in two exciting keynote speeches:
🌾 From the perspective of the agricultural sector and value chains, we looked at the challenges and opportunities of greater crop diversity both in the fields and within the value chain itself.
👩‍🌾 From the consumer perspective, we presented our survey results, which show how a greater diversity of crops can arouse consumer interest and increase demand.
In the moderated discussion that followed, participants' views on new crops and products were collected. This resulted in the following points: 
🌱 Exploring optimal utilisation and recycling strategies for novel crops, paving the way for sustainable agricultural practices.
🌿 Identifying new crops that not only promote biodiversity in the fields, but also serve as pioneers for nature conservation.
🥦 Unveiling the potential of pulses such as chickpeas, beans and lentils, which were met with great enthusiasm and interest.
 
The full video recording of the event and detailed information on the session can be found in the BioFach congress programme at https://www.biofach.de/de-de/kongress-events

30/11/2023 | New project initiated by Dr. Elena Xlopaki: Climate-Resilient Development Pathways in Metropolitan Regions of Europe (CARMINE)

The increasing frequency and intensity of climate and weather extremes associated with climate change challenge adaptation at local and regional levels. The implementation of the EU Strategy on Adaptation to Climate Change is fundamentally based on increasing the local resilience of the regions and communities, where enhanced modelling outputs can significantly/tangibly support local adaptation assessments and plans.

In this context, the project “Climate Resilient Development Pathways in Metropolitan Regions of Europe (CARMINE)” bridges the local and regional scales by providing impact-based decision support services and multi-level climate governance to support local adaptation, including both traditional and Nature-Based Solutions. CARMINE’s overarching goal is to help Europe’s metropolitan communities become more climate resilient by co-producing knowledge-based tools, strategies and plans for enhanced adaptation and mitigation actions in line with the Charter of the EU Mission on Adaptation to Climate Change by 2030.

To achieve this goal, focusing on the 2030-2035 timeframe and with longer perspectives up to 2050, CARMINE proposes an interdisciplinary approach aiming at

  • co-creation and co-development of decision support services and guidelines for enhanced resilience and adaptive capacity, including early warning and disaster risk management systems; 
  • cooperating closely with local to regional communities (stakeholders and users), decision-, and policy-makers (local authorities) to co-develop cross-sectoral frameworks for adaptation and mitigation actions;
  • delivering science-based R&I roadmaps for multi-level climate governance to support local adaptation assessments and plans.

The CARMINE methodology will be implemented in eight selected case study areas, including Prague (CZ), Leipzig (DE), Funen-Odense (DK), Athens (EL), Barcelona (ES), Bologna (IT), Brasiv (RO) and Birmingham (UK). To provide proof of concept, and the project methodology is demonstrated through the digital replication of the climatic and socio-economic characteristics of each area. CARMINE's co-created knowledge and transferable development pathways will be widely disseminated through project networks to drive adaptation in other European metropolitan regions and beyond.

Elena Xoplaki's working group will focus on the following tasks in the project:

  • Integrating climate physical risk assessment models and earth system processes
  • Evaluating socio-economic impacts of climate change and associated risks
  • Co-developing Digital Twin simulations to enhance cross-sectoral climate resilience frameworks

15/11/2023 | New project to develop a pan-European early warning system against natural hazards

A new Horizon Europe project has been launched, in which ZEU, represented by Dr. Elena Xoplaki, is a member of the project consortium. The Mediterranean and Pan-European Forecast and Early Warning System against Natural Hazards, MedEWSa, kicked off at the premises of the Ministry of Digital Governance in Athens, Greece on 9-10 November 2023.

The Centre for International Development and Environmental Research (ZEU)'s "Climate and Environmental Change" focus area is thus once again expanding its research activities within this exciting topic.

The European and African countries adjacent to the Mediterranean basin are particularly exposed to natural hazards including extreme weather events. To enhance resilience and alleviate the impact of such hazards, coordinated preparedness and response mechanisms must extend beyond administrative and geographic regions. 

This summer was the 5th warmest on record for Europe. Heatwaves sustained persistent dry conditions, facilitating the intensification and spread of wildfires in many regions. There were several significant flood events and localised flash flooding, such as those experienced in Greece, Lybia, Bulgaria and Turkey. In July local authorities in 16 Italian cities issued a red heat alert. The islands of Sicily and Sardinia saw maximum temperatures of 49 °C, a new record high. 

The MedEWSa project (2023-2026), which has secured €5m of funding from Horizon Europe, develops a connected system of Multi-Hazard Early Warning Systems (MHEWS) that supports first responders and facilitates informed decision-making. In doing so, it directly contributes to the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals and enhances the European Union's competitiveness and growth.

MedEWSa delivers a network of effective and interoperable MHEWS spanning across the Mediterranean basin and its adjacent countries. It builds on existing infrastructures, fills gaps, and harmonizes through innovative technologies. Particular attention is paid to current and emerging extreme event hotspots, vulnerable areas, and at-risk communities. Central to MedEWSa is a suite of carefully selected pairs of pilot sites, “twins”, that highlight discrepancies in coverage and capabilities and that foster collaboration and demonstrate the transferability of MedEWSa’s tools.

The main objectives of MedEWSa are 

  • Provide multi-hazard information and conduct risk analysis.
  • Contribute to impact-based forecasting.
  • Develop a fully integrated impact-based Multi-Hazard Early Warning System.
  • Use AI-based decision-support solutions to enhance multi-hazard impact prediction.
  • Develop innovative financial solutions through risk transfer to capital markets, including Insurance-Linked Securities and parametric insurance.

Elena and her team will contribute to building capacity against heatwaves, droughts and wildfires as well as floods with detection of these events in the sub-seasonal and seasonal scale. The partner is responsible for the preparation of the MedEWSa baseline of decision support systems, the post-processing of the model data, and the interdependent multi-hazards.

01/08/2023 | Dr. Seyedhamidreza Mojtabavi is the new postdoc researcher in the follow-up project NUKLEUS2

 

 

After successfully acquiring a follow-up project for NUKLEUS (NUKLEUS2), Muralidhar's successor has finally been found: with Dr. Hamid Mojtabavi, we were able to recruit an experienced postdoctoral researcher who had previously worked at the University of Bremen in an H2020 project.

In his work package, he has developed a Python-based external package of the Open Global Glacier Model (OGGM) for the purpose of introducing a new parameterization of the impact of debris in a mass balance model on a global scale.

For the new project, he will focus on data post-processing of high-resolution regional climate model simulations, implementing appropriate AI-based approaches for downscaling, analyzing and testing new techniques to assess the efficiency of methods for reproducing the distributional and temporal characteristics of extremes, and investigating potential risks associated with future changes in extremes.

We wish him all the best for this!

15/09/2023 | Dr. Aliya Assubayeva was awarded the JLU Early Career Researcher Grant for Water Security Study in South America

Dr. Aliya Assubayeva, a Research Associate at the Centre for International Development and Environmental Research at Justus Liebig University, has been selected as the recipient of the JLU Early Career Researcher Grant. This grant will support Dr. Assubayeva's research project aimed at unraveling the complexities of water security in the Mira-Mataje transboundary catchment in South America.

Water security has emerged as a critical global issue, impacted by climate change, population growth, urbanization, and pollution. Dr. Assubayeva's research seeks to address this challenge focusing on the community and transboundary scales, particularly in South America. The project centers on the Mira and  Mataje rivers, vital watercourses shared by Colombia and Ecuador, and aims to amplify the voices of indigenous and afro-descendant communities whose perspectives have been historically overlooked in water policy and management.

This research employs qualitative research methods, including a comprehensive literature review, a Delphi survey involving water users and stakeholders, and semi-structured interviews with local communities in Ecuador. Field data collection will play a pivotal role in understanding the on-the-ground water security issues in the catchment. Reflecting on her previous research in Central Asia, Dr. Assubayeva notes that this comparative study will contribute to the global discourse on water security.

Collaborating with colleagues from the SDGnexus Network Dr. Alicia Correa and Dr. Jorge Forero, both distinguished researchers in their respective fields, along with Dr. Stefanos Xenarios, a Principal Research Scientist at the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation in Australia, this interdisciplinary team is poised to generate valuable insights and solutions.

The JLU Early Career Researcher Grant, offered by Justus Liebig University, provides critical support for early career researchers to undertake independent and impactful research projects. These endeavors are expected to culminate in scientific publications or corresponding research outputs, advancing the realms of science communication and open science.

06/08/2023 | WMO confirms July 2023 as the hottest month on record

 

Lorine Behr gave an interview to the Süddeutsche Zeitung about the current marine heatwave in the North Atlantic and the Mediterranean Sea.

(C) Lorine Behr

Article "Hitzewellen im Meer-Das hat für diesen Sommer niemand vorhergesagt", SZ vom 4.8.2023 (behind paywall)

The article discusses the excessive ocean temperatures in the North Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea observed this year, especially in June and July. Globally, the surface temperature of the oceans in the mid-latitudes was 20.96 °C at the end of July, according to data from the EU's Copernicus climate service. This replaces the previous record of 20.95 °C set in 2016.

It is interesting to note that these (marine) heatwaves are occurring everywhere at the same time this summer, or being one major heat wave e. g. in the North Atlantic. Reasons for that might be climate change, the current evolving El Niño in the South Pacific, the position of the jet stream or internal variability, like the Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation, which is in its warmer phase in recent years. Also, the Western Mediterranean Sea was hit by a strong record-breaking marine heatwave in June, moving to the Eastern Mediterranean in July and August. In some areas like the Alboran Sea, this marine heatwave has been observed since March and was likely coupled to the strong heatwave in the eastern North Atlantic. However, the heat in the North Atlantic alone cannot explain this spread to the Eastern Mediterranean. Both, the ocean and the atmosphere, play a role in the most intense marine heatwaves.

The Mediterranean region experienced repeated “Omega” or “Heat Dome” weather conditions in June and July, with hardly any rain or clouds, high solar radiation and warming of the air and sea surface temperature. (Marine) heatwaves have been occurring more frequently in the Mediterranean, are more intense and last longer than before. These are global phenomena, but the Mediterranean region is among the worst affected.

This has an impact on the flora and fauna of the Mediterranean and other places: Many sponge and seagrass species cannot tolerate the high temperatures and die. Fish migrate to cooler environments, which in turn has an impact on the economy. Sombrero Reef in the Florida Keys observed 100% coral mortality at 38 °C water temperature. On the other hand, jellyfish and other invasive species thrive in these high temperatures and are likely to be found more frequently on European beaches. By then, at the latest, inhabitants and tourists will realize that something is seriously wrong in the ocean.

05/06/2023 | Environmental sustainability in basic research - A perspective from HECAP+

On World Environment Day, 5th June 2023, a document produced by a grassroots initiative of scientists from the basic research disciplines of High Energy Physics, Cosmology, Astroparticle Physics, and Hadron and Nuclear Physics was released. The aim of this document is to reflect on the environmental impacts of these communities’ research and work practices, to highlight current efforts and best practices, and to make concrete recommendations for positive changes. Basic outcomes of this paper go beyond the field of the authors to all fields of research.

The document can be accessed at our website https://sustainable-hecap-plus.github.io/

A pdf version is here: https://sustainable-hecap-plus.github.io/Sustainability_in_HECAPplus.pdf 

The motivation of all this work is as stated in the first sentence of the abstract: “The climate crisis and the degradation of the world’s ecosystems require humanity to take immediate action.”

The focus for each section of the paper is and has always been on best practices, solutions, and improvements – ways that things can be done better instead of simply bemoaning in a doom and gloom way the inevitability of impending further climate chaos. 

Even reading just the Forewords, one will see that multiple leaders in our fields, representing a wide diversity of research disciplines, consider climate change a profound concern for not only physics research, but for humanity as a whole. They are eloquent in explaining the importance of considering GHG-emission factors in each step of our research lives.

We look forward to hearing about more initiatives along these lines, and implementation of some of the recommendations from any and all HECAP+ scientists.

And, we note here also that every single bit of this work was done remotely through Zoom and other tools, so that almost none of us have met in person ever.  Despite this a number of us have become well-connected, and even friends, through the process. We thus would like to say we are an example of how well collaboration can actually work remotely and with little environmental impact.

Thank you –  from HECAP+ and future generations –   in advance, for whatever part of  this document that you read, and act on.
