Seasonal forecasts can become an important tool to adapt to climate change, but translation of weather extremes to actual crop impacts is still a weak. In this new paper, led by @ignaciosg.bsky.social, we show what forecasts do well in three African countries, and where more innovation is needed.

Major climate impacts on crops in North America and Europe. Major shipping disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz and now, potentially, the Red Sea. Transit through the Panama Canal threatened by drought. It's time we started getting serious about #FoodSecurity.

In our new paper in Nature Climate Change, we show that hail conditions are projected to shift poleward with climate change, and that summer decreases and winter increases in hail hazard mean that winter crops may face rising risks from hail. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Shifting hail hazard under global warming and effects on crop hail risk - Nature Climate Change

How hailstorms change with warming is not well understood. Here the authors use global projections with different hail proxies to show that hail-prone conditions shift polewards under warming, also sh...

Free piece just released. Marco Rubio called on tolerant, democratic, liberal Europe to destroy itself and embrace a Trump-like future. He received a standing ovation and we are told some people are reassured. If so, Europe will deserve everything coming its way. open.substack.com/pub/phillips...

First step is to set priorities. I was invited to make a small contribution to this interesting perspective by Ignacio Saldivia Gonzatti of @w-u-r.bsky.social Next step is actual implementation. Uncharted Waters is working on it. #weatherforecasts #cropproduction #foodsecurity

Farmers who use weather forecasts take more protective measures but access to reliable information remains limited. In India, we are working with WOTR to bridge this gap, integrating real-time climate monitoring with crop intelligence and market insights. www.unchartedwaters.com/insights/tru...

Our latest monitoring data from Central Asia show a further decline in the region's mountain snowpack. Working with TIIAME in Uzbekistan, we've been actively monitoring the situation since 2008. Smaller tributaries have lost over 50% of their minimum snow cover compared to two decades ago.

At Uncharted Waters we harness the power of real-time data to help organisations act and adapt in an increasingly volatile world - www.unchartedwaters.com/insights #FoodSecurity #WaterSecurity #Trade #ClimateResilience #DigitalTwin

The planet is changing fast. Data that can help us adapt is scattered. Collection and analysis is slow.

We are Uncharted Waters, a climate-tech start-up. We are on a mission to unlock real-time data on climate, water and food security, so people and organisations can act, not just react.

🌍 New Q2 2025 Food Security Indicator release! Mixed patterns globally - trade & production remain key drivers. Regional shifts in Central America, Sub-Saharan Africa & East Asia since Q1. unchartedwaters.com/insights #FoodSecurity #ClimateResilience #DataAnalytics

Uncharted Waters' Food Security Index tracks food security worldwide, using a range of indicators and nowcast and forecast data on climate, water, conflict, food production and trade.

Why it matters. Reveals emerging crises hidden by lagging data, connect food security and inequality and trade dynamics, supports fast, better-informed action.

Our FSI is different. Near real-time, benchmarked. Independent, with global coverage (except for smaller territories, notably Gaza). Incorporates indicators on both food availability and access.

Projections of African food production by mid century suggest a doubling of agricultural land. We show there are alternatives.

Can sub-Saharan Africa feed its growing cities? Using a computer model we estimated Africa’s urban foodsheds and regional excess or shortage of food production. We show that improved water management can boost self-sufficiency, reducing the need to convert more land by ~25%. doi.org/10.1016/j.gf...
