BSC Powers Climate Services for Agriculture in Europe

The Barcelona Supercomputing Center (BSC) is a partner in the MED-GOLD project, which will foster the creation of highly specialized climate services for wine, olive oil, and durum crops, providing indicators to optimize agricultural management practices in relation to the impact of global warming. "Wine, olive oil and durum wheat products are staples of the Mediterranean diet. Their production rates and quality are highly dependent on weather and climate. These essential features are not guaranteed under future climate change conditions, which are expected to increase vulnerability to crop failure and pest damage."
