Our PhD Heidi D. Mendoza will present her ongoing work on living with drought and flood in the context of Peruvian Amazon. See you there! #drought #flood #waterjustice

Thanks! I enjoyed giving an overview of the literature review & data analysis done in the PerfectSTORM project European Research Council (ERC). Great work by Marlies Barendrecht Alessia Matanó @rubenweesie Heidi D. Mendoza and many partners & coauthors.

Alessia Matanó presented her PerfectSTORM research on the influence of drought on streamflow generation processes & regime shifts to a large crowd of interested people #EGU24. Papers in review & in prep.


Following the stories that flow from rivers I'm happy to be back in Iquitos with 2 MSc students doing their thesis on drought and flood policy effectiveness (Stefano), and on using serious games as a co-creation opportunity for rethinking adaptation measures (Senna). IVM - VU Amsterdam


Today we welcomed two new postdocs to the IVM - VU Amsterdam #drought group: Charles Wamucii (icisk_eu project) & Danai Kontou (PerfectSTORM project). With a small delegation incl Jose Henao, who started his postdoc last month, we enjoyed lunch in the botanical gardens Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (inactief) ☀️





It has started! The Natural Hazard & Risk conference in Amsterdam. PerfectSTORM is represented by @rubenweesie with a poster on droughts & floods in Kenya and by me with an oral on storylines of drought-to-flood events. Looking forward to interactions with everyone here.

PerfectSTORM IVM - VU Amsterdam Our prototype/trial/first datathon completed with triumphant success! Adding 48 new entries in our dataset, accompanied with interesting stories! 🌱Awards on most/best entries Heidi D. Mendoza and best story Dr. Anne Van Loon (she/her) Stay tuned for the next Datathon!


A month ago we had a great field trip to Yuracmayo basin with PerfectSTORM! One of the largest dams for water supply for #Lima city faces drought scenarios with glacier extinction, wetland degration, increasing temperature & social pressure UTEC - U. de Ingeniería & Tecnología INAIGEM
