Under the scope of the a4a Initiative, the JRC is promoting cooperative activities between fisheries scientists with the aim to test, disseminate and promote a4a methods. These Small Research Projects (SRP) focus on comparing the results of assessments from other models to assessments obtained...

TrainMiC® is a European programme for lifelong learning on how to interpret the metrological requirements in chemistry. It is operational across many parts of Europe via national teams. These teams use shareware pedagogic tools which have been harmonised at European level through the joint...

The Annual Economic Report on the EU Fishing Fleet (AER) provides a comprehensive overview of the latest information available on the structure and economic performance of EU Member States fishing fleets, being the reference used for policy support. The socio-economic data collected and...

The present report is compiled of the methodological choices that have ruled the production of the 2016 PREDICT dataset. PREDICT produces statistics and analysis on ICT industries and their R&D in Europe since 2006, and covers the EU's main world competitors, includes data on 40 advanced and...

This report describes the algorithm to disaggregate regional crop area statistics in Europe, at all NUTS and GAUL administrative levels and onto a regular grid of 25 km. This algorithm is necessary to aggregate crop indicators in the MARS Crop Yield Forecasting System (MCYFS) from the original...

This methodological report explains the data sources and methods used by the Joint Research Centre (JRC) to compile the dataset on structural small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) indicators in the annual SME Performance Review, and commissioned by the Directorate General for Internal...

This report explores using web based information, together with big data in macroeconomic forecasting. Exploiting rich information sets has been shown to deliver significant gains in nowcasting and forecasting contexts, whereas indicators constructed using web data can lead to better nowcasts in...

Snow cover information is currently used in the modelling of frost kill damage of winter cereals at JRC-MARS. The intended improvements can exploit snow data information leading to more precise simulations in the crop models and soil moisture simulations resulting more precise crop yield...

Tropical cyclones (TCs) are some of the most damaging events. They occur in yearly cycles and affect the coastal population with three dangerous effects: heavy rain, strong wind and storm surge. In order to estimate the area and the population affected by a cyclone, all the three types of...
