Improving Monitoring for Better Integrated Climate and Biodiversity Approaches, Using Environmental and Earth Observations
The BioClima project, enhanced by EU-China collaboration, aims to revolutionise biodiversity and climate monitoring by merging advanced AI with ground and remote sensing data systems for deeper terrestrial ecosystem insights. It will develop harmonised monitoring systems across the EU and China, leveraging AI to refine data models and analytical pipelines for robust policy-making. The project is set to strengthen monitoring through Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) and Essential Climate Variables (ECVs), and make synergies between biodiversity conservation and climate mitigation. BioClima is designed to support policy-making with scientific insights and recommendations for integrated climate and biodiversity strategies at national and international levels. Through case studies across Europe, the project's findings will be upscaled to inform EU-wide strategies, contributing to climate neutrality, adaptation, and biodiversity conservation efforts. BioClima supports EuropaBON's goals for standardised biodiversity monitoring, enhancing data integration, and fostering international cooperation. BioClima anticipates significant increases in monitoring coverage, accuracy in biodiversity and climate change assessments, and the implementation of nature-based solutions. Furthermore, it aims to strengthen EU-China cooperation, enhancing global environmental monitoring, conservation strategies, and policy formulation.
