🥔 Heat & drought are shrinking potato yields across Europe.

Combining sensor data, drones & field trials, the EU-funded @eu_adapt project tested 50+ potato varieties to guide future stress-tolerant breeding.

Giving back to Calgary: an article was published today about my satellite research of the city!

It is important to me to use my knowledge as a geoscientist and environmental data scientist to help make our new home better and greener. Thanks to LiveWire Calgary for the interest in this topic!

RT by @EUPublications: There are over 1 200 olive varieties, but only 5 % are used commercially. The @Gen4Olive characterized 500+ olive varieties, conserved wild populations and developed user-friendly tools for olive cultivation. 🌿🫒

🛰️ 242 Million Pixels: Calgary’s Urban Heat Pulse

To model Calgary’s #UHI with precision, I processed 242,376,352 pixels from Sentinel-2 & Landsat 8/9 (Summer 2025).

Using multi-temporal composites in #RStats on #Debian, I’ve revealed the persistent link between greenery & heat. Data shows that NDVI > 0.35 triggers a sharp drop in surface temp.

This is a foundational layer for my Multi-Dimensional Environmental Matrix (#MDEM) framework for #UrbanHealth.

Rewild to deter invasion. Why not just rewild?

To be fair the two places mentioned, Finland and Poland, have stunning environments right on the borders they share with Russia and her allies and are already rewilding so perhaps all these geo-politics aren't so bad if they come with nice side effects for everyone.
