2023-05-24: Good Practices for SUSTAINABLE Development OF STEMMUS-SCOPE

Together with NLeScience colleagues, we enjoyed a fruitful workshop to follow the good practice in Sustainable Software Development, in terms of the collaborative workflow, programming styles, and many more.

Please find the slides here and the collaborative document here.

2023-04-26: EGU Presentation on Soil-Plant Digital Twin

I presented "Towards a Digital Twin of Soil-Plant System" at EGU.https://lnkd.in/ezREGWVm

For a more detailed explanation of the soil-plant digital twin, please check the recording at the OpenGeoHub meeting: https://lnkd.in/ecgWqhPk

2023-02-15: UT-NEWS - INTERNATIONAL SOIL MODELLING CONSORTIUM (ISMC) ELECTS YIJIAN ZENG AS CO-CHAIR

UT researcher Yijian Zeng, from the Department of Water Resources at the ITC Faculty, has been elected as the Co-Chair of the International Soil Modelling Consortium (ISMC). For the coming three years, he will work together with top soil scientists towards an open “Soil Digital Twin”, contributing to EU Soil Strategy for 2030 that aims to achieve healthy soils, which is at the heart of Europe’s twin green and digital transition.

2021-12-03: UToday - Predicting Vegetation Health

UT scientist Yijian Zeng and his team, from the Faculty of Geo-information Science and Earth Observation (ITC), combined two existing computer models into a powerful tool to monitor the impact of drought and heat waves on vegetation. They received a three year grant from Netherlands eScience Center to further develop and refine their new model.

EcoExtreML kicked off successfully online. 

2021-09-23: UT-News - Monitoring And Predicting The Effect Of Climate Extremes On Ecosystems

UT researchers Dr. Yijian Zeng, Prof. Dr. Bob Su, Dr. Christiaan van der Tol, Prof. Dr. Raul Zurita-Milla and Dr. Michael Ying Yang (all from ITC Faculty) have been awarded a grant from Netherlands eScience Center’s ASDI 2020 call. In their research project, they will combine two computer models to understand how water-carbon dynamics of ecosystems vary with climate extremes, such as droughts and heatwaves.
