Due to the continuous release of greenhouse gas (GHG) into the atmosphere, the climate on Earth is ever-changing with the increase in the average temperature and the appearance of extreme events. Climate change has caused a series of disasters such as extreme heat, flooding, wildfire, and drought and significantly threatened the safety and health of human beings and the prosperity and sustainable development of society. The peak of the climate emergency with a threshold of 1.5 °C or 2.0 °C, beyond which climate-related social, economic, and environmental impacts will become irreversible, is approaching. Urgent actions relevant to mitigation and adaptation solutions should be taken to decelerate climate change and to protect people from climate-induced threats. This webinar invites three scholars to share their latest research outcomes in climate-related impact mitigation and adaptation, built environment decarbonization, and sustainable urban planning and design. This webinar also calls for the involvement and participation of all professions in society to accelerate the progress of climate change mitigation and adaptation through closing a series of gaps towards actual implementation.

Dear Colleagues,
The Faculty of Geodesy (Geodetski fakultet) is organizing the International Conference of Environmental Remote Sensing and GIS (ICERS) on July 11th and 12th, 2024. The conference will take place at the National and University Library located at Hrvatske bratske zajednice 4, Zagreb, Croatia.
We invite you to present your research results and publish them free of charge in the ICERS conference proceedings, and to participate in the conference attendee.
Submit your abstract till 21st April via the link: https://forms.gle/pwTXfxNGYv23qcLT6

Ghent, Belgium
The workshop is organized by Ghent University on behalf of the Working Group on Proximal Soil Sensing (WGPSS), established in 2008 under the International Union of Soil Sciences (IUSS). Since it was established, the WGPSS group has organised five workshops to discuss technological advances in proximal soil sensing to complement laboratory methods of soil analyses. To overcome the bottlenecks of traditional data acquisition, soil inventory has evolved into the direction of proximal soil sensing. This is according to the paradigm “Measure more, less precise” or, in other words, bring the laboratory measurements into the field to increase the spatial and temporal coverage, but at the cost of measurement precision.
The Sixth Global Proximal Soil Sensing Workshop will continue the discussion from theoretical and practical perspectives, focussing on the applicability of the technology in natural resource management. The workshop invites participants from academia and industry, working on topics including, but not limited to, soil and environmental sciences, agricultural engineering, archaeology, forensic investigations, sensor development, near-surface geophysics, spectroscopy, agronomy, spatial statistics, and artificial intelligence.
