The Dust Doctoral Network project: Advancing research on atmospheric mineral dust ☁️ The Dust-DN project, the first doctoral network in Europe dedicated to atmospheric mineral dust, is funded under the Horizon Europe programme through Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions. Coordinated by CARE-C at The Cyprus Institute, the project aims to address key scientific and societal challenges related to atmospheric dust. The main objectives of Dust Doctoral Network are: 👉 To study the microphysical properties of dust 👉 To investigate the influence of source regions on atmospheric dust 👉 To assess impacts on health, aviation, and energy production 👉 To examine the role of dust in the climate system This initiative brings together 8 core partners and 15 associated partners from academia, research, and industry to train the next generation of scientists in atmospheric #dustresearch. As part of the consortium, GRASP Earth contributes to the project by advancing research on atmospheric dust and its impacts, supporting the development of innovative solutions to address these challenges. +Info about the project:  https://lnkd.in/daAKj75T #GRASP #atmosphericdust #earthobservation #remotesensing #atmosphericscience #environmentalscience #scientificresearch

In the big, global picture of the carbon cycle, phytoplankton at the ocean surface transform CO2 from the atmosphere into energy that fuels the marine food chain. This "biological carbon pump" is responsible for much of the organic carbon that eventually sinks to the bottom of the ocean, where it's locked away for centuries. But how does it get there– and where is that pump most productive? A new study from #WHOI researchers and partners shows that shallow waters make the best carbon sinks– and deeper, low-oxygen waters are some of the least productive.

🦠 Are cyanobacteria the key to long-term space exploration? These microscopic powerhouses could transform space missions by producing oxygen, recycling waste, and even serving as a sustainable food source. Some species can withstand high radiation, while others can be engineered to create biofuels or medicines—essential for survival beyond Earth! Curious to learn more about how these microorganisms could shape the future of space exploration? Join us on January 14th for the Future of Food event featuring Christel Paillé, an European Space Agency - ESA engineer and expert on cyanobacteria’s potential in space. 🔗 Register here: https://lnkd.in/eabbfPjk Will we see you there? 👀 Wageningen Plant Research #ReThinkFoodChallenge #ReThinkFood #SpaceMission #AstronautLife #Cyanobacteria #Spirulina #Monn #Mars #ISS #FutureofFood

Come learn more about lead contamination the October 30th. Much of the discussion will focus on soil contamination, the most widespead source of lead exposure. Soil lead contamination is nearly everywhere in urban areas, and many rural areas too.

🚀 Abstract Submission Now Open for the Living Planet Symposium 2025! 🌍 Organized by the European Space Agency (ESA), the Living Planet Symposium 2025 invites you to submit your abstracts. If you're interested in compound and cascading events, submit your abstract to our session: 🌋 Addressing Multi-Hazards: Compounding and Cascading Events through Earth Observation [B.04.02] 🛰️ This session delves into how Earth observation can enhance our understanding and management of multiple, interconnected hazards. We aim to explore innovative approaches to predict, monitor, and mitigate the impacts of compounding and cascading events using EO technologies.
