It is part of the <a href="https://metadatacatalogue.lifewatch.eu/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/b1e514c1-9352-4976-a5ef-9f28f55cc9fa" target="_blank">Seagrass Carbon Stock Model Virtual Lab</a>. The workflow uses stored data from the EURO-CARBON database and Copernicus covariates. Main steps:</div><div>1. opens and combines a dataset of sediment data and environmental covariates;</div><div>2. removes unneeded variables;</div><div>3. sets any negative values for Sentinel-3 products to 0;</div><div>4. creates a unique core ID factor variable;</div><div>5. saves the dataset to use for modeling;</div><div>6. visualises the dataset;</div><div>7. checks for correlations across environmental predictors;</div><div>8. applies a random forest and generalised additive model.</div> blue carbon seagrass sediment data environmental covariates; Copernicus EURO-CARBON database essential variables remote sensing Lincense under negotiation with the workflow owner Natalya Gallo NORCE ngal@norceresearch.no Seagrass carbon stock input from GUI workflow component This is a NaaVRE workflow component / building block that allows the users to set the parameters of a single site and species to asses the carbon stock. It reads input parameters, validates them and then prepares such parameters as input to the carbon stock model. https://metadatacatalogue.lifewatch.eu/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/b1b247f4-62fc-478b-8e43-ba887fddfa88 Seagrass carbon stock model workflow component This is a NaaVRE workflow component / building block that uses stored data from the EURO-CARBON database and Copernicus covariates. It opens and combines a dataset of sediment data and environmental covariates, removes unneeded variables, sets any negative values for Sentinel-3 products to 0, creates a unique core ID factor variables, saves the dataset to use for modeling, visualises the dataset, checks for correlations across the environmental predictors and applies a random forest and generalised additive model. https://metadatacatalogue.lifewatch.eu/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/6d8e2798-5f51-48de-ab03-f1e13beb5c46 Seagrass carbon stock input from excel workflow component This is a NaaVRE workflow component / building block that allows users to set the parameters of multiple sites and species to asses the carbon stock. It reads the input from Excel, validates them, and then prepares the parameters as input to the carbon stock model. https://metadatacatalogue.lifewatch.eu/srv/eng/catalog.search#/metadata/91596933-f954-4a51-8c68-d76657b460ef https://helpdesk.lifewatch.eu/ https://beta.naavre.net/vreapp/vl/blue-carbon WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Link to the vLab https://marcobolo-project.eu/wp-content/uploads/2025/11/MBO_D5.3_Oct-2025.pdf WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Deliverable 5.3 Scientific document describing potential for satellite remote sensing to estimate blue carbon at regional scales within European coastal systems.
