The Gulf of Riga's waters are getting darker, and a plain white Secchi disk has the decades-long record to show it. For AquaINFRA, researchers are turning that record into an open workflow: aquainfra.eu/news/buildin... #GulfOfRiga #OpenScience #AquaINFRA

Freshwater species are declining at double the rate of marine and triple the rate of terrestrial. 83% decline since 1970. Yet freshwater gets a fraction of conservation attention. Why? New blog: aquainfra.eu/news/freshwa... #AquaINFRA #FreshwaterBiodiversity

Satellites can map chlorophyll-a across an entire sea basin. But they can't see below the surface, miss small lakes, and need ground-truth data to be reliable. A balanced look at capabilities and blind spots: aquainfra.eu/news/satelli... #AquaINFRA #RemoteSensing

At #EGU26 last Friday, AquaINFRA participants ran a real aquatic workflow live: from FAIR data search, through Galaxy, to Mann-Kendall trend analysis on Gulf of Riga water optical properties. Full recap on the blog. aquainfra.eu/news/inside-... #AquaINFRA #EGU26

Open science isn't just about free access to papers. It's about whether another researcher can reproduce your results. In aquatic science, that's still rare. New blog on what reproducible workflows actually look like: aquainfra.eu/news/open-sc... #AquaINFRA #Reproducibility

Europe has plenty of water data. The problem? It's scattered across hundreds of databases that don't talk to each other. Our latest explores why — and what it would take to fix it. aquainfra.eu/news/europes... #WaterData #AquaINFRA

Aquatic scientists spend too much time downloading, reformatting, and emailing datasets. Virtual research environments offer a better way. Our latest explains what VREs are and why water science needs them. aquainfra.eu/news/virtual... #EOSC #AquaticScience #AquaINFRA

FAIR data: easy to endorse, hard to implement. What Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable actually require in practice: aquainfra.eu/news/what-fa... #FAIRData #OpenScience #DataManagement #AquaINFRA #HorizonEurope #ResearchData

Water doesn’t stop at the freshwater–marine boundary. If nutrient runoff changes in the Daugava basin, what happens in the Gulf of Riga? AquaINFRA connects rivers to seas through integrated data, models & reproducible workflows. aquainfra.eu/news/from-ri... #SourceToSea #AquaINFRA

Seeing the North Sea from space isn’t simple. Coastal waters, from the Elbe estuary to the Oslofjord, are optically complex, and standard satellite algorithms often fail where monitoring matters most. aquainfra.eu/news/seeing-... #NorthSea #Copernicus #WaterQuality #OpenScience

AquaINFRA’s biggest challenge now isn’t building infrastructure — it’s sustaining it. With Horizon Europe funding ending in Dec 2026, we’re aligning our services with the EOSC Federation. aquainfra.eu/news/aquainf... #EOSC #OpenScience #HorizonEurope

AquaINFRA will be at Ocean Sciences Meeting 2026 in Glasgow 🌊 Savitri Galiana will present our modular ocean circulation modelling system integrated into the AquaINFRA VRE (EOSC). Read more: aquainfra.eu/news/aquainf... #AquaINFRA #EOSC #OceanSciences #OpenScience

How do rivers, groundwater & the ocean connect and why does it matter for coastal predictions? At #AquaINFRA Oslo, the Mediterranean Use Case showed a true source-to-sea workflow. Read more: aquainfra.eu/news/linking... #AquaINFRA #SourceToSea #Mediterranean #CoastalScience #HorizonEurope

Our key takeaway from the #EOSCWinterSchool2026: the community needs actionable blueprints for #EOSC. EOSC Beyond is building them. If your organisation is developing federated services or planning to become a Node, test and collaborate in the EOSC Core Innovation Sandbox. 🔗 go.egi.eu/Xb68v
