SHAPING A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

The last symposium of the DTEClimate project – Competence Center for Climate Change Digital Twin for Earth Forecasts and Societal Redressment - took place on 18 March 2026 at the library of University Politehnica.

In accordance with the objectives of the project, we aim to increase awareness for modeling and understanding the effects of climate change. Academic trainings should act to create a robust knowledge base for action. Further, interactions between teaching and research should always be encouraged. In this spirit, AI4DTE project members collaborate in stimulating academic activities (i.e., master courses and presentations) that include in their curricula elements on AI technologies and Earth observation data to serve as a basis for understanding climate processes and societal aspects.

The final local event of the Act4D-Eutrophication specific project took place in a hybrid format (University of Ovidius campus and online) on Friday, March 6th 2026.

The National University of Science and Technology POLITEHNICA Bucharest deepens its collaboration in the frame of the DTEClimate Competence Center with academia, national partners, and NGOs.

Presentations from DTEClimate Principal Investigator Prof. Mihai DATCU highlight recent advances for modelling geophysical extremes and digital twin technology. The event explored how digital twin technologies can be used to better understand the complex interactions between atmospheric, hydrological, and geological processes that drive extreme environmental events and climate-related risks.

In February 2026, REACTIVE was featured in an online invited presentation at NORSAR, Norwegian Seismic Array Research Institute, outlining a bold vision for climate-hazard monitoring through multi-sensor integration

A main objective of the REACTIVE specific project is to develop an integrated multi-hazard monitoring service to assess and manage complex risks in Romania

Two fieldwork campaigns were conducted by EO4NATURE representatives across two Natura 2000 sites in November and December 2025. These activities collected in-situ observations, drone photographs, and measurements to support the validation and refinement of habitat and ecosystem results derived from remote sensing and geospatial analyses.
