RiscBal integra deu estacions hidromètriques al sistema europeu de gestió d’emergències Copernicus. Les dades d'aquestes estacions contribuiran a millorar les prediccions i alertes del Sistema Europeu d’Alertes d’Inundacions.

Cómo los vientos de Santa Ana han provocado incendios mortales en el sur de California Los vientos secos y potentes que soplan desde las montañas hacia la costa del sur de California se combinan con el crecimiento de la población y de los tendidos eléctricos.

#Posidonia oceanica is one of the most important elements in terms of beach protection. Its geomorphological role decrease wave energy and protect sediment from erosion

We may work to protect it and leave it above beach! It’s not rubbish 🌱

You can toggle between country borders and tectonic plates. I quite like being able to gauge the depth of them.

Yes! This is the power of new technologies! Large areas of land can be mapped and monitored quickly and accurately! But at the same time, it is important not to forget field work to obtain reliable data!

This is figure 2, which shows a visualization of forecasts and tropical cyclone tracks.

A paper in Nature presents a machine learning model, called ‘GenCast,’ that can produce a reliable probabilistic weather forecast, expressed as probabilities of various outcomes, based on current and future weather. https://go.nature.com/3B8PsdD 🧪

What an amazing and interesting paper 👇🏻

For considering and replicate to an other places worldwide

Remote sensing is crucial in terms of reaching massive information of territory and evaluate it’s evolution

However, as a researchers, we can’t forget the importance of fieldwork and field monitoring if we want to test the accuracy of data

River suspended-sand flux computation with uncertainty estimation using water samples and high-resolution ADCP measurements Abstract. Measuring suspended-sand fluxes in rivers remains a scientific challenge due to their high spatial and temporal variability. To capture the vertical and lateral gradients of concentration in...

Field-Measurement of Surface Wind and Sediment Transport Patterns in a Coastal Dune Environment, Case Study of Cala Tirant (Menorca, Spain) Blowouts are integral features of coastal dune fields. Their presence enhances both geomorphological and ecological diversity and enables the movement of sand by wind. Their role as a ‘transport corri...

Here an example of how important is #wind incidence on coastal #dunes development and how topographic features can modify wind flow behavior.
