RT @DroughtGov: #DroughtMonitor 12/5: Inches of rain improved drought in the South/Southeast. But some eastern areas (VA, NC, SC) mostly missed out.

The Northwest/HI received abundant precip too. Mostly status quo for the rest. #Drought2023 Footprint: 28.8% of US drought.gov @NOAA

How can we bridge the gap between the knowledge gained through climate change sensing/modelling and the required decision-making?

The answer could be Earth Systems Predictability technology: it combines elements from #EO, #AI, simulation, visualisation and decision support with the goal to build on Earth digital twins and provide an accessible, distributed platform that is integrated with everyday life.

In early 2023, the National Forestry and Grassland Administration (NFGA) in #China, released the "National Sustainable Forest Management Pilot Implementation Plan (2023-2025)" (NSFMPIP), planning to lead and drive innovation in the management mechanism and improvement of forest quality in the country, including through generating outcomes in pilot demonstrations.
The seven pilot Sate Forest Farms (SFF) of the TRI-China project are included in the NSFMPIP.
Thanks to our partners and implementers for contributing to the gains of #TheRestorationInitiative in China.
