Urban populations are significantly affected by air pollution, which poses a major threat to public health. However, standardized and public mobility data, essential for an exposure assessment, are frequently unavailable. Earth Observation-derived and model datasets can support large-scale health studies especially in remote areas with limited data availability.

As part of the BMBF project WASCAL WRAP2.0 LANDSURF, we have published a dataset with a large number of agricultural relevant indices for Africa. These include indices of temperature, heat, drought, and precipitation as well as various crop-specific indices of water availability for 12 different crops.

As part of the course "klima.fit - Climate change on your doorstep! What can I do?" at the adult education centre Volkshochschule Würzburg & Umgebung e.V. Dr Luzia Keupp from our working group gave an insight on 14 May 2024 on

the expected effects of climate change in the Würzburg region.
