Urbisphere

The European Met Society #Zilitinkevich award for achievements in boundary layers and #turbulence has been awarded to Sue Grimmond @BlueSky and Larry Mahrt Congratulations! World Meteorological Organization Bert Holtslag Reading Meteorology

Prof. Birkmann presents selected results of the European Research Council (ERC) Urbisphere project in Brussels @EURegionsWeek #cities #climate #h2020 #ERCSyG

#Cities, #Climate Change and Planning: good discussion with experts from the Netherlands, Croatia, Poland+colleagues (like Marta). Findings of the ERC #urbisphere project presented at #EURegionsWeek; session organized by European Research Council, #ERC_Research, Uni Stuttgart

On World #CitiesDay, learn how Uni Stuttgart Professor Joern BIRKMANN / Prof. is trying to understand the interaction between cities and climate change 🌍. 👇 #MissionCities EUScience&Innovation🇪🇺 EU Climate Action Urbisphere

The RSlabGr hyperspectral team of FORTH runs #data collection campaign monitoring the form of #Paris using hyperspectral camera by HySpex and spectroradiometer by Spectral Evolution for the needs of the European Research Council (ERC) Urbisphere project. #cities #climate #h2020 #ERCSyG

Our year-long Urbisphere campaign in Paris comes to an end. This week, the Universität Freiburg team launched parallel radiosoundings in city & suburbs. With Sue Grimmond @BlueSky RSlabGr Simone Kotthaus and Martial Haeffelin we study how cities modify winter inversions that cause poor air quality.

Indoor climate change? Yes - not only outdoors but also indoors, heat increases and affects health & productivity. Our work Universität Freiburg published in Climatic Change Journal uses sensors & climate models to assess future heat stress at 100+ workplaces Urbisphere link.springer.com/article/10.100…

New paper in GeoModelDevelopment on our machine learning model developed Universität Freiburg for mapping heat stress in cities - faster & with comparable accuracy to physical models it enables multi-year simulations at 1m scale for entire cities Freiburg im Breisgau Urbisphere #I4C doi.org/10.5194/gmd-17…

Good discussion with the Minister of science of the state of Baden Wuerttemberg Ms. Olschowski. "New beginnings" in EU research, presentation of our ERC synergy grant #urbisphere about #climate change and #cities with my colleague Prof. Christen European Research Council (ERC), Uni Stuttgart

Presenting today our European Research Council (ERC) Synergy Grant Urbisphere to Minister of Science, Research and Arts Petra Olschowski wissenschaft.kunst.bw as a best practice project for Horizon Europe🇪🇺. We Universität Freiburg and Uni Stuttgart collaborate with European Partners to resolve cities in climate models.

First year of data of our urban The PhenoCam Network from the Urbisphere project in the Berlin Rotheburgstrasse ICOS RI station will be presented in #EGU24 today by Dimitris Tsirantonakis in the BG8.17 Session: Urban Ecosystem Dynamics 1/2 meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU24/EGU24-15… FORTH EGU

Giannis Lantzanakis, of RSlabGr, presented his research as part of Urbisphere on "Material mapping over Heraklion city: Employing urbisphere Urban Hyperspectral Library exclusively on Sentinel-2 imagery for pixel classification," at the #GeoDPA2024 in Oldenburg, Germany 1/3

Research supported by the Urbisphere project was presented by Dr. Daniel Fenner, Gregor Feigel, Ferdinand Briegel, Dimitris Tsirantonakis and Dr. Ting Sun at the European Geosciences Union General Assembly #EGU24 last week in Vienna! Find out more: urbisphere.eu/news/egu_2024.…

Our lab is utilizing the HySpex VS-620 hyperspectral camera in #Heraklion to study the properties of #urban and #natural materials. Undergraduate students from #Physics and #Mathematics departments of Πανεπιστήμιο Κρήτης participated in the field campaigns and data analysis!

We are delighted that our two #Urban #Flux #Towers in #Heraklion FORTH are now labelled by ICOS RI and officially a part of the #ICOS #GHGs network! Find out more about our #urban #emissions #monitoring equipment present in #Heraklion here: rslab.gr/fluxtowers.html

Our lab is conducting a #hyperspectral measurement campaign in #Berlin this week in the framework of Urbisphere to study #urban materials using the HySpex VS-620 (350-2500nm). Thanks to Dr.Fenner of Universität Freiburg and Dr.Meier of TU Berlin for the support! FORTH

Our new preprint EGU presents a modular approach to near-time data management for observation campaigns on weather and climate in cities - Developed @unifreiburg, Reading Meteorology and RSlabGr and deployed as part of Urbisphere in multiple cities. egusphere.copernicus.org/preprints/2024…

RSlabGr is actively involved in the organization and the scientific procedures of the #IGARSS2024 Symposium (2024.ieeeigarss.org), co-organized by FORTH and held this week at the #Athens Concert Hall with over 3,500 attendees. Urbisphere #Geoscience #RemoteSensing
