CERTO

💧🌍 Fertiliser runoff and sediment can harm waterways. The #EUfunded @CERTO_project is improving water-quality monitoring with satellite data and a user-friendly platform for coastal and inland waters. Explore the tools. 👉 europa.eu/!Bvwh7Q

🌊 CERTO has recently been showcased in the latest @EU_Commission CORDIS Results Pack, highlighting how our efforts produced harmonised #WaterQuality data and improved monitoring of transitional waters like #lagoons, #estuaries, and #rivers. Read more: pml.ac.uk/news/protectin…

The @CERTO_project ended recently and produced several #remotesensing data and indicators on #waterquality in three European #lagoons. Read the case study overview 2-pages here futureearthcoasts.org/lagoons-for-li…

We've developed a new online system to improve above-water remote sensing reflectance measurements by removing residual reflected skylight. Check out this free tool to get more accurate Rrs data for your water colour studies fortheralandingzone.stir.ac.uk/bio_optic/

Read our latest newsletter as the @certo_project comes to a close after nearly 4 years - including case study overviews & data portal updates. Learn about our work to improve water quality monitoring in European estuaries, lagoons & coastal waters! sh1.sendinblue.com/ackit72nwlpfe.…

Discover improved water quality monitoring! @certo_project has developed overviews of our work in 6 case study areas, showcasing advances in monitoring transitional waters. Learn about innovative indicators and how to access our water quality data. certo-project.org

@dalin_jiang @GiuliaSent @BrotasVanda @a_n_tyler Thanks @homodelphinius, the code is available in Github: github.com/DalinJiang/TSS

Led by @dalin_jiang, CERTO developed a semi-analytical method with Sentinel-2 MSI data to estimate total suspended solids across inland & coastal waters. The technique reliably retrieves TSS from clear to turbid conditions, outperforming current approaches doi.org/10.1016/j.ispr…

Check out the CERTO data portal which now includes indicators from our v2 prototype, including chlorophyll a, optical water type, remote sensing reflectance and suspended particulate matter! engage.certo-project.org/data/

If you're attending #Ciência2023 today, don't miss @GiuliaSent @MARE_centre talking about "Water quality: how satellites can help us monitor our estuaries, the CERTO project" in the Restoring our oceans from space session, Academic Events Room 11:15 UTC+1. encontrociencia.pt

🔵One of today's Session 2 #EuroLag10 talks will cover the R&D of the @CERTO_project. @eirini_politi will present #waterquality #EOdata #chlorophyll #suspendedmatter #vulnerability #indicators based on what stakeholders need for #transitionalwater research and management.

Exciting video complementing a captivating article by @HorizonMagEU, shining a spotlight on the remarkable work of @CERTO_project in our Razelm-Sinoe lagoon case study area that is led by @Adriana_Maria_C ec.europa.eu/research-and-i…

Exciting read in @HorizonMagEU showcasing the pioneering work of @CERTO_project, with key insights from Prof Steve Groom, CERTO Coordinator @PlymouthMarine. The article delves into our fascinating Razelm-Sinoe lagoon case study, led by @Adriana_Maria_C. ec.europa.eu/research-and-i…

We are delighted to be working with the #MegaDelta programme of @FECoasts and will be providing #WaterQuality data to help understand these important environments for a more sustainable future. For more information see: certo-project.org/News/Expanding…

@CopernicusEU @EUEnvironment @UNFCCC @OurOcean @europainitalia @CmccClimate @CNRsocial_ @UfMSecretariat @VittorioBrando @CoastObsProject @planetek Fantastic imagery of the #Venice Lagoon, one of the @CERTO_project case study areas. We are using @CopernicusEU data, together with our own data from in situ sampling in the region, to develop harmonised water quality products for transitional waters such as the Venice Lagoon.

#WorldWaterDay🌊 Rising water levels caused by #ClimateChange 🌍📈 are increasing the vulnerability of coastal zones #Copernicus 🇪🇺🛰️ delivers essential #OpenData on sea level rise, ocean currents, and more, helping us protect our precious coastlines ⬇️#Venice lagoon

Today there was another field trip with the 3rd year Marine Botany #Students to collect #phytoplankton and water to analyze #chlorophyll! #tejoriver #belem #Science #researchers @CERTO_project

Today @BrotasVanda was delighted to take a group of students from @FC_UL on the #Lisboat ferry to learn more about marine botany and how the @CERTO_project is monitoring water quality using radiometers installed on the ferry. certo-project.org/Resources/Lisb…

So that we can ensure the accuracy of CERTO measurements our equipment is regularly calibrated. Here is the #Lisboat after the radiometer sensors were sent out for their yearly calibration last week.

CERTO uses radiometers onboard the #Lisboat ferry to measure water quality. We were really pleased to welcome a group of students from the @ISUnet last year to learn about our work and receive specialist training in water quality monitoring.

Great keynote speech of @a_n_tyler on #EarthObservation for the 21st century at #MARBLUE conference in #Romania with substantial contributions from @CERTO_project and @doorsblacksea and work taken forward in #DANUBIUSRI in the #BlackSea and other Supersites
