SHAPING A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

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.

On the 24th of November 2025, the Romanian Space Agency (ROSA), together with the MULTIDIMENSION SRL partner, organized the online EO4NATURE - Challenges and Opportunities for Biodiversity Assessment conference.

An important advancement of REACTIVE is the integrative use of environmental seismology, where existing seismic networks are used to detect signals related not only to earthquakes but also to atmospheric and environmental processes. Understanding how soil moisture influences seismic response is essential for climate-aware seismic hazard assessment - especially in regions experiencing intensified rainfall patterns.
