More reliable crop forecasts with AI and satellite data

By combining satellite data, mathematical and statistical ecosystem modeling, and artificial intelligence, it is now possible to generate earlier and more reliable crop yield forecasts—an essential step toward ensuring future food security in a changing climate. This is demonstrated in a new doctoral thesis by Xueying Li, PhD at the Department of Physical Geography and Ecosystem Science, and membe

Secondary forests could be a key factor in climate management – if we protect them in time

By analysing over 100,000 field measurements as well as environmental data, an international research team has created maps that show how and when naturally regrowing forests bind most carbon. To fulfil climate goals and avoid the most serious consequences of global heating, we need to both reduce emissions of greenhouse gases and remove carbon dioxide that is already in the atmosphere. Naturally
