Putting the 2022 #drought in the Netherlands in perspective. A new blog by the IVM - VU Amsterdam drought research group: hydrologicalextremes.org/2023/02/01/dut… What were the propagation processes, impacts, adaptation measures, communication, and is it over yet? And what can our research contribute?
Hydrologist Rhoda Odongo is excited by the potential that her research with DOWN2EARTH has to make a difference with real world challenges and issues. For #WomenInScience day we encourage you to share #MyScienceStory too! Read more stories: egu.eu/6LAPXF/
Always nice to have a workday together with IVM - VU Amsterdam colleagues Ileen Streefkerk, @SchrieksTeun, Rhoda Odongo and Dr. Anne Van Loon (she/her)! We discussed upcoming papers and ideas for future research for the DOWN2EARTH, and the planning of the upcoming D2E general assembly, here in Amsterdam
'What is the influence of climate & catchment characteristics on drought propagation in the Horn of Africa🌍🔬?' 🤔‼️ See our paper just published in Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences (NHESS) - nhess.copernicus.org/articles/23/23… ‼️ (w/Hans de Moel & Dr. Anne Van Loon (she/her)) #research #drought #EastAfrica
Read about Elvia Rufo Jiménez's secondment in the the Water Institute at the University of Waterloo 🇨🇦 During her stay she worked with Dr. Roy Brouwer on her research analyzing preferences and values regarding human health risks associated with chemical exposure recetox.muni.cz/prorisk/articl…
🌄 Starting a new day at the European Geosciences Union / #CNDSsummer School with a lecture about #Buildbackbetter by Jonas Johansson (Lund University) after a #disaster happens. Focus on the #vulnerabilities of #criticalinfrastructures. Learn more at cnds.se
#learning from our failures, how we identify unexpected threats? Charles Parker (Department of Government, Uppsala University) tells us all about #crisispreparedness & #foresight at the European Geosciences Union / #CNDSsummer School 🎈 Tomorrow, all #PhD students will be the protagonist in a #tabletop exercise!
The European Geosciences Union / #CNDSsummer School 2023 has its last sessions today with a #tabletop exercise where the participants need to go deeper into two cases studies and present their advice for a new #DRR strategy. #interdisciplinaryresearch #groupwork
🥂 Thank you everyone for your outstanding participation this week at the #CNDSsummer School 2023! Thanks to European Geosciences Union for the grant provided to some of the Summer School students, you helped make this possible! 🏆 See you next year for the CNDS Summer School for 2024!
Paper published! Marleenlam applied a random forest model to study the link between #drought indices and drought impacts in Kenya. With Alessia Matanó Rhoda Odongo Aklilu Marc van den Homberg @droughtNL and others
The IVM - VU Amsterdam drought group almost complete today! First drought meeting for Jose Henao Casas Jose David Henao Casas joining us as postdoc on groundwater drought & Charles Wamucii visiting to present his PhD research on water distribution, modelling, serious games.
It was nice to see so many ppl gathered together to talk about early stages of their career. Thanks to Young Hydrologic Society , EGU Hydrology and IAHS_AISH that made it possible.
