The Research Data Alliance (RDA) is rapidly building the social and technical bridges that enable open sharing and re-use of data on a global level. RDA/Europe - the European plug-in to the global Research Data Alliance activities will ensure that European research, industrial, einfrastructure and policy stakeholders are all aware of its achievements, engaged with and...
The Tropical Atlantic climate recently experienced pronounced shifts of great socio-economic importance. The oceanic changes were largest in the eastern boundary upwelling systems. African countries bordering the Atlantic strongly depend upon the ocean for their societal development, fisheries, and tourism. These countries were strongly affected by these climatic changes and...
Climate change is expected to impact extreme weather in Europe. There is therefore a clear need to adapt effectively to climate change, particularly in Europe, where recent heatwaves, floods and droughts have demonstrated the vulnerability of European citizens to extreme weather. However, scientifically robust information about the extent to which recent extreme weather can...
CALIOPE is a smartphone application for air quality forecasts. Centered in the field of atmospheric composition, it provides citizens with qualitative information about the air we breath. Through CALIOPE application, any user can check the air quality forecast for the next 24 hours for major air pollutants in both air quality stations and maps.
This project aims at exploring the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) influence on the tropical North Atlantic (TNA) sea surface temperature (SST). The SST variability in the TNA region has been observed to affect weather and climate in surrounding areas, including European heatwaves, tropical Atlantic hurricane activity, the West African monsoon, and rainfall over...
Theoretical Chemistry and Computational Modelling (TCCM) is emerging as a powerful tool to helpin the rational design of new products and materials for pharmaceutical, chemical, energy, computerand new-materials industries. To achieve this goal, it is necessary to go beyond the traditional electronic structure studies, and merge complementary techniques that are normally not...
ACTRIS-2 addresses the scope of integrating state-of-the-art European ground-based stations for the long term observation of aerosols, clouds and short lived gases by capitalizing on the work of FP7-ACTRIS. ACTRIS-2 aims to achieve the construction of auser-oriented RI, unique in the EU-RI landscape. ACTRIS-2 provides 4-D integrated high-quality data from near-surface to high...
Hi-EST aims to address a new class of placement problem, a challenge for computational sciences that consists in mapping workloads on top of hardware resources with the goal to maximise the performance of workloads and the utilization of resources. The objective of the placement problem is to perform a more efficient management of the computing infrastructure by continuously...
High-fidelity flow simulation is one of the main goals to pursue in the research towards exascale computing. This capability will allow a cheaper exploration of aeronautical and automotive designs that fulfill energy consumption and noise emissions policies of the European agencies. In this project, the integration of three high-performance tools will be studied as a...
EUDAT2020 brings together a unique consortium of e-infrastructure providers, research infrastructure operators, and researchers from a wide range of scientific disciplines under several of the ESFRI themes, working together to address the new data challenge. In most research communities, there is a growing awareness that the rising tide of data will require new approaches to...
