We saw this graphic at a meeting hosted by Forth-ERA in Stirling yesterday and thought it was quite powerful - even rainy Scotland is predicted to have medium/high water stress in the coming years. Monitoring the water quality will be crucial.

Our PhD student Edward Salakpi graduated y'day from University of Sussex 🎓 His research used SEO data to analyse vegetation/drought in African pastoral communities. He is now a #RemoteSensing scientist on the Forth-ERA programme at University of Stirling. Well done Dr Salakpi, you've worked so hard!
