ForestPulse Illuminating tree-water dynamics in forest ecosystems with high-resolution geophysical monitoring

Coordinator: LUXEMBOURG INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY (LU)

Forests play a crucial climate-regulating role, acting as a resilient interface between the soil and the atmosphere, fostering biodiversity, natural resources or carbon capture. However, climate change, especially severe droughts, may push them beyond their limits. Traditional eco-hydrological methods provide valuable insights on tree-water interactions, but observational gaps hinder a full understanding of how trees mitigate water stress and source water. What could be the advantages of geophysical monitoring? With recent advancements in geoelectrical and Fibre Optic Sensing (FOS) technologi…

About Horizon Europe (2021–2027)

Horizon Europe is the EU's current research and innovation programme, covering 2021 to 2027 with a budget of roughly €95.5 billion. Its three pillars are Excellent Science (frontier research and mobility), Global Challenges and European Industrial Competitiveness (mission-driven collaborative projects in health, climate, digital, security and food) and Innovative Europe (the EIC and EIT). It also funds five EU Missions targeting cancer, climate adaptation, smart cities, oceans and soils.

0 EU contribution: €216k awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 2 years from 2025-09-01 to 2027-08-31.
