The EU Horizon 2020-funded APPLICATE project organised a 3-day Early Career Event in cooperation with the Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS).
Some 70 scientists reviewed 'exciting first results' at the second General Assembly and an early career event of the EU-funded APPLICATE project on polar prediction at ECMWF from 28 January to 1 February 2019.

Alumnos del CEO Ignacio Aldecoa, en La Graciosa, y el IES Yaiza participan en un proyecto pionero de recogida de datos sobre partículas de polvo en suspensión.
TSK ha resultado ganador en la fase nacional del Quality Innovation Award en la categoría de Innovaciones Potenciales por el proyecto de I+D SOLWATT, solución a problemas de consumo de agua en plantas termosolares.
Aunque llevamos siglos recopilando y procesando datos, la revolución digital ha marcado un antes y un después en ese campo. Los dispositivos electrónicos y sus aplicaciones, interconectados a través de internet, han aumentado más que exponencialmente la producción, la captura y el almacenamiento de datos.
Los huracanes de fuego son cada vez más dramáticos en la medida en que se calienta el planeta. Expertos advierten que estos mega-incendios hacen parte de las nuevas catástrofes naturales ligadas al cambio climático.
The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), the entrusted entity for the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S), has signed with the Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) the contract for the implementation of the Evaluation and Quality Control (EQC) function of the C3S Climate Data Store (CDS). The CDS is the largest fully public global repository of climate data.
Two projects dealing with specific tangible problems linked with airborne dusts. It is possible to avoid volcanic dusts, after an eruption, paralizing air flights, as happened with the eruption in Iceland in 2010? Or that this happens due to radiactive dusts possibly released by a nuclear incident? And again, how can the bad effects of desert dusts, mainly of Sahara origin (allergies, pollution, photovoltaic panels with working problems just to mention a few) be mitigated?
Portugal is part of a project financed by the European Union with almost five million euros, which aims to address the potential threats of climate change to agricultural sectors such as wine. The project, called MED-GOLD, started in December 2017 and was presented today in Vila Nova de Gaia, within the framework of its first general assembly.
