Have you received a #SealOfExcellence for a project proposal under the MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowships or Individual Fellowships calls in the area of Economic Sciences or Social Sciences and Humanities? There's a new funding opportunity for you by Collegio Carlo Alberto 🇮🇹! Check the call ⬇️

The second NUSH seminar is taking place tomorrow Tuesday 7 February at 4pm (GMT) on campus and via Zoom. Joseph Lewis will be presenting his research on the modelling of past routes. More details below. All are welcome!

HiLSS celebrates the #GeoPackage Day sharing the project's .gpkg database 🎉🥳 👉tinyurl.com/bdcv584v

I'm proud to announce that our paper "Modelling the impact of historic #LandscapeChange on #SoilErosion and degradation" has been published on Nature Portfolio : Scientific Reports ! 🔗nature.com/articles/s4159…

📢 Exciting news! Our paper "The Evolution of Historic #Agroforestry Landscape in the Northern Apennines (Italy) and Its Consequences for Slope #Geomorphic Processes" has been published Land MDPI ! mdpi.com/2073-445X/12/5…

Exciting day at Vetto (🇮🇹) as we unveil the research outcomes of the @HiLSS_Project ! 😎

Next up is Filippo Brandolini Filippo Brandolini, PhD introducing research for his Marie Curie project examining the origins, development and degradation of historic landscape features in the northern Appenines

⚠️ HiLSS account has a new identity as RhECAST! As we bid farewell to the HiLSS project, we're thrilled to embark on the RhECAST journey, continuing to explore historic rural agriculture strategies and their role in climate change mitigation. 🌳🌳🌳

Clear sky conditions (bottom image from #Copernicus #Sentinel3) allow detecting high NO2 concentration in the Po valley as can be spotted on the #Sentinel5p image collected on Jan. 23 (top image). #Italy Il Nord #Italia senza nuvole consente la visione delle emissioni di NO2.

This aligns perfectly with RhECAST Project. The U.S. global food security envoy advocates for the revival of traditional African crops, long sidelined by American policies. This blend of innovation and tradition could be the key to sustainable solutions. nytimes.com/2024/01/22/cli…

"The final document no longer refers to cutting agricultural emissions of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas belched out by cows, or nitrogen, a pollutant in fertiliser and manure that reacts to form heat-trapping gases" 🫤 theguardian.com/environment/20…

Milan ranks as the 3rd-worst global city for air quality, standing at the heart of one of the world's most severe hotspots for GHGs. RhECAST Project aim at mitigating this emergency through historically nature-based solutions. Stay tuned! 💪 tinyurl.com/25ncv8zz

"Amid the controversy over Milan's air pollution ranking, the Italian Society of Environmental Medicine said that Italy had the highest number of deaths attributable to air pollution in Europe with 80,000 each year". 🔗tinyurl.com/yc83t9xw

Comparing the Po Plain from the mid-19th century to today shows the dramatic shift from historic agroforestry to industrial monocultures. With RhECAST Project, I'm exploring the potential of reviving these nature-based solutions for climate mitigation. Stay tuned 🤟🌳🌳🌳

Nature-based solutions like agroforestry are shaping the future of carbon removal. While planting trees is a controversial method for fighting climate change, many tech companies continue to rely on this strategy to meet their sustainability goals. theverge.com/24168768/carbo…

What if we could learn an important lesson from historical nature-based solutions? RhECAST Project is exploring the potential benefits of restoring historic agroforestry systems in terms of carbon dioxide removal. Stay tuned! 🤙😎 nature.com/articles/d4158…

Here's a visual of Land Use Land Cover (LULC) transitions from 1850 to 2023 in the Central Po Plain, Italy. It shows changes in land use for 1850, 1954, and 2023. Understanding these transitions aids in policy-making and land use planning for ecological health. RhECAST Project
