The sustainability of plastic materials implies attaining a renewable origin and recyclable nature. Unfortunately, both conditions are far from being fulfilled by the current industry. In the polyester sector, PET [poly(ethylene- terephthalate)], one of the most common plastics, has a petrochemical origin. Happily, PEF [poly(ethylene-furandicarboxylate)] is emerging as a...
Climate change is exerting an increasing pressure on land ecosystems in numerous parts of the planet. One of the most dramatic consequences of this enhanced stress are the exceptionally large wildfires that ravaged parts of Australia, the Arctic or California in recent years. While there exists an established research effort on how these fires are affecting land ecosystems,...
RI-URBANS aims to demonstrate how Service Tools (STs) from atmospheric Research Infrastructures (RIs) can be adapted and enhanced to better address the challenges and societal needs concerning air quality (AQ) in European cities and industrial hotspots. RI-URBANS responds to urgent needs to substantially reduce air pollution across EU by providing enhanced AQ observations in...
EU Critical Infrastructures (CIs) are increasingly at risk from cyber-physical attacks and natural hazards. Research and emerging solutions focus on the protection of individual CIs, however, the interrelationships between Cis has become more complex for example in smart cities and managing the impacts of cascading effects and enabling rapid...
The CAMS2_35 invitation to tender describes a highly technical project that requires experience and expertise in several domains: integrated global chemistry and aerosol modelling, physics and chemistry of the atmosphere, air quality modelling, as well as a detailed knowledge on the architecture and functioning of the IFS and of the possible observational datasets used for...
IBERIFIER is an Iberian hub that aims to tackle disinformation in Spain and Portugal by bringing together a consortium of 23 partners, composed of 12 universities, 5 independent fact-checking organisations and publicly owned news agencies, and 6 leading institutions on strategic analysis, computer and data science, and media research. With support from public authorities of...
Características socio-demográficas, como la profesión y la situación laboral, resultan imprescindibles para entender la salud y el bienestar. La relación entre enfermedades y profesiones se debe a múltiples factores, como el riesgo aumentado de exposición a sustancias tóxicas y patógenos, la sobrecarga...
MITIGATE (MonIToring and dIagnosinG ozone formATion from spacE) aims to unravel the sensitivity of surface O3 production to NOx and VOC precursors over Spain using the high-resolution TROPOMI sensor. Designed to address the aforementioned issues, the specific objectives of the project are:
- to assess the consistency between...
NextGEMS will develop and apply a new generation of global coupled Storm-Resolving Earth System Models (SR-ESMs) to the study of anthropogenic climate change. SR-ESMs are distinguished by their fine, 3 km, grid in the atmosphere andocean. This allows a more physical representation of atmospheric and oceanic circulation systems, including their coupling to Earth-system...
En la actualidad, gran parte de las enfermedades para los que no existe tratamiento o solución vienen derivadas del envejecimiento. Uno de los principales problemas para tratarlas se encuentra en la dificultad de detectarlas en estados tempranos de su desarrollo, lo cual requiere de un seguimiento demasiado monitorizado de cada ser humano. Es por ello, que se hace...
