Some water in Norway.

@egu.eu #EGU25 Union Symposium on Advancing Measurements in the Geosciences ready to go. Now we just need the audience….!

It's EGU week next week!!!! Don't miss sessions on river flow monitoring, remote sensing & all the latest on measurements across the geosciences...! meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/sessio... meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/sessio... meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/sessio...

🎓 #PhD opportunity – apply by 12 May! Study how land use & climate change affect upland wetlands’ role in flood & drought resilience using novel tracer + modelling methods. Part of the ECOWILD CDT and contributing to #FDRI 🔗 www.findaphd.com/phds/project... 🧪 @nickeverard.bsky.social

The UK's opposition Conservative party is now openly opposing the net-zero by 2050 target it put into law Today's @carbonbrief.org Daily Briefing email adds some important context to the news, in square brackets… Free to subscribe: subscribepage.io/carbonbrief

#Peatlands occupy just 3% of all land, but contain more carbon than all of the world’s forests. However, farmers and miners are draining the peatlands, releasing so much CO2 that if they were a country, they would be the fourth biggest polluter in the world after China, the US and India. 🌎🧪🌐

Who wants to lead my division here at @esa.int's ESTEC campus? 😀 A fantastic job opening working as head of the Earth Science division as part of @esaearth.esa.int. Check out the job ad here: jobs.esa.int/job/Noordwij... Closes: 10th March, so brush up those CVs

Oh, hey, I'm on Spotify! (And other podcast sources...) Talking about my #Hydrometry work here at @ukceh.bsky.social measuring river flow (and floods)! #CurrentMeters, #ADCPs, #Drones, #radars, #satellites, #PoohSticks all discussed. @markytalk.bsky.social thegeomob.com/podcast/epis...

Future hydro monitoring...! Made with Google's Gemini AI.

Fabulous 2 days brainstorming future #hydrology satellite missions at EUMETSAT Darmstadt HQ, with lots of satellitey goodness to amuse during breaks….! Exciting times for river science….!

@eurogeosciences.bsky.social EGU 2025 abstract deadline! January 15th 13.00 CET. Hydrometry River Flow session covering floods, droughts, monitoring, modelling, innovation: meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/sessio...

climate.copernicus.eu/global-clima...

They actually broadcast(ed...?) me! Talking about drones and satellites and what have you...! #Hydrometry on the TV.... Excellent support from @ukceh.bsky.social colleagues! www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

Seems my @ukceh.bsky.social colleagues and I might be on the telly tomorrow...! Talking #ARCboat, drones, satellites, floods, FDRI. (Let's see how much of my over-excited ramblings make the cut.) BBC South through the day, and radio.

Just over a week to abstract deadline for EGU 2025!! @eurogeosciences.bsky.social Don't miss #Hydrometry #RiverFlow session 'Advances in river system monitoring & modelling', HS 1.2.4! In Vienna & online. Abstracts by Jan 15th. meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/sessio...

Thermal #velocimetry River Tweed. Amazing.

November Hydrological Summary for the UK: Regional variation, with below normal to notably low river flows in the north & flows in normal range to notably high in the south. Groundwater levels ranged from normal to exceptionally high (prior to December's wet start) 🔗 mailchi.mp/ceh/november...

Oh, that's just ridiculous! Thought I might track velocity with thermal signal below confluence, but #velocimetry working on Tweed upstream of confluence too! A weak signal, but it was there! Next generation #Hydrometry!

Excellent work from the ABC story lab team: A planet-wide solar boom is beating expectations at every turn www.abc.net.au/news/2024-12...

Is river & flood measuring, monitoring & modelling your kinda thing? Then don't miss the regular @eurogeosciences.bsky.social #Hydrometry session Advances in river system monitoring & modelling, HS 1.2.4! In Vienna & online. Abstracts by Jan 15th. meetingorganizer.copernicus.org/EGU25/sessio...

#ARCboat, #ADCP & #drone for shoot with BBC Jon Cuthill. Should feature in upcoming BBC flood special. Nerdy tech time - note the 2 #HydroSTIV-processed drone videos - average surface velocity 0.93 on Nov 26th & 0.92 today. Also note slightly higher water level in the sunny image. Nice results!

Misty Oxford morning for ESA Futureproof workshop. Flooding, security, resilience.

Thames looking pretty full at Wallingford today (bankfull, to be precise), with lots more water to come from a very wet Cotswolds and North Oxfordshire, where 3-day rainfall totals of 60-75 mm were observed. Today's Sentinel 2 NDVI image shows floodwater best.

UK Hydrological Summary for October published earlier this week: ☔️Rainfall was 84% of average for the UK 🏞️ River flows were below normal for most of Scotland and above normal in much of England 🔗 mailchi.mp/ceh/october-...

Today, we drove our #ARCboat and #ADCP across the Thames and it reported a discharge of 65,536 litres a second. Then we drove it back again, and it reported 65,536 litres a second. Not even 1 litre a second difference. #Hydrometry tech at its best!

Brand new #ADCP and #SurfaceVelocityRadar device to play with..... ....on the first snow day of the winter.... (Yes, this passes as snow nowadays in South Oxfordshire....!)
