Global Earth Observation for integrated water resource assessment (eartH2Observe)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
The project eartH2Observe brings together the findings from European FP projects DEWFORA, GLOWASIS, WATCH, GEOWOW and others. It will integrate available global earth observations (EO), in-situ datasets and models and will construct a global water resources re-analysis dataset of significant length (several decades). The resulting data will allow for improved insights on the full extent of availab ...

Wireless distributed intelligent system for irrigation optimisation and early turf disease prevention and treatment on Golf Courses (WATERGOLF)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
Recreational water use is usually a very small but growing percentage of total water use and is mostly tied to reservoirs. If a reservoir is kept fuller than it would otherwise be for recreation, then the water retained could be categorized as recreational usage. Recreational usage is usually non-consumptive. The report from the European Environment Agency (EEA), reveals that Europe has so far con ...

Improving Plant Cell Walls for Use as a Renewable Industrial Feedstock (RENEWALL)
Start date: Aug 1, 2008, End date: Jul 31, 2012,
"With oil reserves diminishing and the effects of industrial emissions on global climate, there is a need for renewable carbon-neutral industrial feedstocks. First generation biorefineries, producing biofuels and bioplastics by the fermentation of sugar or starch, are seeing a rapid expansion and are adding stress to food supplies. A more sustainable option is to use plant biomass from agricultura ...
