\"Methods for Attribution Scheme and Near Real-Time BACI

- analysis of feature relevance for novelty detection
- software for near real-time change detection and novelty score

It is important to note that the attribute \"\"near real-time\"\" for the change detection refers to the prediction speed of the algorithm. The availability of EO data for very recent timestamps will determine the real-time capability of the whole process.\"

D8.4 Species distribution models calibrated for a large number of European birds and plants, built on high-resolution remote sensing layers and continually updated as new data becomes available.

We will assess the utility of high-resolution description ofecosystem properties for enhancing fine-scale habitat selection models for a wide range of bird and plant species. Accurate descriptions of fine-scale habitat characteristics is likely to lead to substantial improvements in model predictions. To the extent that species fine-scale distributions are related to EO-derived estimates of ecosystem properties, yearly updates of these properties will allow yearly updates to habitat selection models. This will enable improved monitoring – for example it will be useful to guide observers towards locations most likely to harbour a species of interest, and will serve as an early warning system for endangered species if the fine-scale habitat conditions for the species suddenly become unsuitable for the species. Results will be disseminated through the BACI newsletter and peer-reviewed publications.

D8.3 Validation of European space data layers for biodiversity monitoring

We will ground-truth BACI products, including the BACIndex, for general use in biodiversity monitoring using large databases of plant and bird population sizes and diversity through time. Rapid changes in diversity, or changes in species composition, of on-the-ground samples should be associated with ecosystem change estimates based on EOs. Assuming that a link is possible, this will pave the way for predictive biodiversity monitoring. Results will be disseminated through the BACI newsletter and peer-reviewed publications.

We will assess the status of European protected areas with respect to changing ecosystem properties, as estimated from EO products. On one hand, we expect protected areas to change relatively little compared to surrounding areas. On the other, rapid change in these areas raises a red flag for conservation concerns. Results will be disseminated through the BACI newsletter and a peer-reviewed manuscript.

D8.5 EO-based maps of the vulnerability of biodiversity (integrating independently estimated biodiversity vulnerability with RS estimates of ecosystem change)

One major application of the BACIndex will be to highlight regions where major ecosystem changes are occurring (WP5), to provide an early warning system for potential biodiversity losses. We will explore this possibility by combining the BACIndex estimates with maps of biodiversity vulnerability. Maps of biological vulnerability will include hotspots of threatened and endangered species richness and endemism (determined from global range maps such as the IUCN maps). In addition, we will consider threatened habitat types as defined by the EU Habitats Directive, hereunder focusing on the utility of EO to monitor biodiversity trends and conservation status of Natura 2000 sites (linking EO to ground survey data, e.g., thousands of repeatedly surveyed vegetation plots in Danish Natura 2000 sites). Rapid changes in these areas represent a particular threat to biodiversity. These maps of biological vulnerability will also be directly useful to conservation and land management throughout Europe, enabling improved conservation prioritization.
