Success story
ReSAgri - Resilient & Sustainable ecosystems including Agriculture & food
Profile
Natural hazards such as droughts, flash floods, and natural and man-induced disasters e.g. forest fires, and floods, are affecting and have a dominant role in natural ecosystems and agriculture, and hence food, resiliency and sustainability.
Proposal
This pilot would integrate an advanced hazard forecasting system to explore the links between heatwaves, wildfires, and floods in synergy with the other pilots of the e-shape disaster showcase concerning the development of an innovative meteo modelling solution in higher grid resolution and with EO based assimilation process.
Benefits
- Supporting the ecosystem resilience and food production process
- Economic value both from contributing to optimal food production and to new businesses (e.g. agriculture insurance business)
- Contribution to ecosystem protection and food security challenge

Using knowledge about how certain substances, such as one of the main pigments of the phytoplankton (Chlorophyll a - Chl a) alter the colour of the water, these parameters can be derived from optial Earth Observation (EO) satellite sensors. Water Insight provides monitoring services of Chl a based on EO data which is validated with in situmeasurements. Also the maps of WFD phytoplankton biomass status classes are created, by application of the WFD tresholds on Chl a as a proxy for phytoplankton biomass. The maps are made available in a portal, which allows to follow the lakes in time, zoom and download maps and time series.
