BioVeL – SEEK and Taverna addressing climate change
As a followup to the BioVeL project http://www.biovel.eu/ a group of researchers (including two of us from Manchester University) submitted a showcase to the Research Data Alliance Climate Data Challenge which was accepted. Even better it will be presented during the UN Climate Change Conference (COP21) in Paris in December. The showcase uses a configured SEEK to run a Taverna workflow on a Taverna Server
The showcase is called "Predictive modelling of mosquito-borne diseases in Sweden" and demonstrates how predictions of climate change can be used, together with species distribution information, to predict potential future disease areas.
