The aim of this EU-project is the development of climate resilient adaptation strategies, knowledge-based tools and strategies as well as services for eight metropolitan areas within Europe through the linkage and collaboration of different stakeholders and science communities with the help of e.g. Living Labs, nature-based solutions and modelling.

The project "Data2Resilience" focuses on data-driven measures and services for monitoring thermal comfort within the city of Dortmund. The aim is to enhance resilience to extreme heat in Dortmund sustainably and optimize energy efficiency in both building structures and urban infrastructure.

The "WATCH" project investigates the hydration needs and risk of dehydration in young children under urban climate conditions and climate change-induced climatic variations. The aim is to provide drinking recommendations and thereby reduce the risk for this vulnerable age group.

As part of the Bochum climate network, over 20 weather stations are to be set up at Bochum schools. This measurement network makes it possible to model the different climatic conditions in Bochum. The main goal is for students to actively learn in class how data can be collected, managed, evaluated and combined with other environmental data.

The main goal of this CORDEX Flagship Pilot Studies (FPS) project is to understand the effect of urban areas on the regional climate, as well as the impact of regional climate change on cities, with the help of coordinated experiments with urbanized RCMs.

The COST FAIRNESS action intends to improve standardization and integration between databases/sets of micrometeorological measurements that are part of research projects or local/regional observational networks established for special purposes.

The overreaching goal of the project is to develop a consistent and generic methodology that enables globally consistent analysis of urban heat islands worldwide. This is done via satellite earth observation and crowdsourcing.

The World Urban Database and Access Portal Tools project is a bottom-up initiative to collect data on the form and function of cities around the world.

Evaporation of precipitation water as a new approach to climate change adaptation

APHH is an international collaborative project to examine the emissions, processes and health effects of air pollution in Beijing.

Activation of the ground cooling capacity for urban climate concepts for climate adaptation using the example of the city of Neuss

New approaches to climate-adapted urban planning using the example of the "Quartier Feldmark" model area

The ESA Climate Change Initiative (CCI) aims to realize the full potential of the long-term global Earth Observation archives that ESA has established over the past 30 years, as a significant and timely contribution to the ECV databases required by UNFCCC.
