SEED-FD
@seed_fd
SEED-FD is a #HorizonEurope project advancing global predictions of extreme hydrological events like #floods and #droughts. Funded by the EU, ID 101135110
Learn more about the Copernicus Emergency Management Service – the foundation of SEED-FD’s research to develop advanced #EarlyWarningSystems for floods and droughts worldwide.
#DYK that CEMS is built on three key components? ▶️ Early warning & monitoring ▶️ On-demand mapping ▶️ Exposure mapping Learn more about our components here 👉 emergency.copernicus.eu/use-cases/the-…
✨ MidTerm Periodic Review today! The SEED-FD Consortium, Advisory Board & EC align on progress & plan ahead – advancing flood & drought forecasting to protect lives & livelihoods. 🔗 seed-fd.eu #seed_fd #HydrologicalForecasting #ClimateResilience #HorizonEU

One week at #LPS25...exciting time...busy time...a lot of fun! See you next LPS in 2028!!! New DTE Hydrology Platform launched: platform.dtehydrology.org With a lot of new things...contact us if you are interested!
🚀SEED-FD is live at #LPS25! 🛰️Discover how EO & hydrological modelling support flood and drought forecasting. 🎤Presentations by Luca Brocca (@CNR_IRPI) & Vanessa Pedinotti (@magellium) this week – join us in Vienna! #seed_fd #HorizonEU #HaDEA
🏜️Droughts are a growing global concern. 🌍SEED-FD builds on the valuable work of CEMS to further improve drought detection and forecasting, especially in regions where early warnings are still limited.
Did you know droughts are one of the most costly natural hazards? 🚱 The #CEMS Early Warning & Monitoring component provides vital drought information at both European and global levels. 📍#EDO tracks drought impacts across Europe 🌐 #GDO monitors global drought conditions
The devastating floods in #Somalia highlight the urgent need for better #EarlyWarningSystems. In SEED-FD, we’re working to improve flood forecasting in vulnerable regions like the #JubaShebelle basin by integrating satellite and in-situ data into the Copernicus EWS. #HorizonEU
🌧️ Ongoing floods continue to impact Somalia 🇸🇴 Figures from @eu_echo & @EU_ScienceHub show over 84,000 people affected. The map, based on #GloFAS & #GFM data, highlights flood extent and humanitarian impact. 🗺️ View the map: erccportal.jrc.ec.europa.eu/ECHO-Products/…
🌍SEED-FD at #EGU25! 🎥Gwyneth Matthews @GwynRMatthews (@ECMWF) presented a poster on SEED-FD’s mission to enhance global flood and drought forecasting! #seed_fd #HorizonEU #HaDEA #EGUToday
Climate extremes are rising. SEED-FD joins the mission to reduce the impact of extreme weather by strengthening Copernicus forecasts globally. Early warning lays the foundation for early action. #ESOTC2024 #Floods #Droughts
Europe had a hot, wet, stormy 2024: ☀️⛈️ 🔥 Hottest year on record 🌊 335 lives lost to floods & storms 🧊 Glaciers vanishing fast 💶 €18B in damages (85% from floods) But more cities are adapting. 🧭 Explore the #ESOTC2024 report: ow.ly/Z4RE50VAEy0
