Sometimes it takes years and sometimes three papers are submitted within two days

Mentors matter—especially in challenging times. The latest #EGU special issue Women in #Hydrology shines a light on women who’ve broken ground in hydrological sciences, & the mentees following their path. Essential reads on equity, inclusion, & resilience. Check 👇 blogs.egu.eu/divisions/hs...

Do I remember the 20-21 August 2005 #flood in #Switzerland because I got married that day or the other way around?

Wetterextreme und Sommer 2025 Ich war gestern Gast im SRF Tagesgespräch bei Karoline Arn. Ich habe die Wetterereignisse des Sommers 2025 eingeordnet und über unsere laufende Forschung am @usyseth.bsky.social der @ethz.ch gesprochen. www.srf.ch/audio/tagesg...

New @tudelftwm.bsky.social paper published that I co-authored! Improving estimates of rainfall over East Africa by combining existing satellite and ground based observations, a short thread on the why and what! 🧵👇 Link to the paper: doi.org/10.1175/JHM-... #science #hydrology #scicomm

Is definetly too warm, the compiler is now tking over one hour to compile somthing that usually takes 15 seconds

1/3 🚨 Published today in @nature.com! We’re thrilled to celebrate the latest work by our colleague Dominik Gräff, with contributions from D. Farinotti & R. Moser 🎉 Using seafloor fiber-optic sensing, his team watched Greenland’s glaciers calve in real time & found something surprising 🌊🧊 📸: D. Gräff

Set for the first challeinging FORTRAN programming task in this decade .... wish me luck :-)

Hydrology Paper of the Day @georgiapapachar.bsky.social on estimating uncertainties associated with gridded precipitation data products derived from satellite remote sensing: non-linear ensemble learning and quantile loss functions; predictor variable reduction; stacking; and assessing performance.

Sharp mind.

🥳 New paper by Amber van Hamel 🐟 Extremely high suspended sediment concentration in rivers negatively impact the health of aquatic ecosystems. ❔Curious? ➡️ Suspended sediment concentrations in Alpine rivers: from annual regimes to sub-daily extreme events: hess.copernicus.org/articles/29/...

Hydrology Paper of the Day @hyclimm.bsky.social @manuelaibrunner.bsky.social on extreme events of suspended sediment concentrations: landscape and environmental drivers; processes related to events; how to classify events; variability in the context of glacier melt; and the importance of rainfall.

Gauge is fulll No more place for further rain

So, I fed a famous AI tool with a print screen of a Excel table and asked to provide me the latex code of it with the goal of inseting the resulting code in Overleaf .... ... I got the wished output within 10 seconds I find this a game changer ... (i know, need to control everthing again)

This is how we make Swiss Birchermüsli

Why do trees preferably transpire winter precipitation? 🌳💦 In our latest commentary we argue that it's not a big surprise but the effect of seasonal differences in soil recharge. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... @canopyinclouds.bsky.social @harshberia.bsky.social @scottallenunr.bsky.social

👋 Hi, we are HYCLIMM – Hydrology & Climate Impacts in Mountain Regions – a research group at @slfdavos.bsky.social & @ethz.ch . We study #water & #climateextremes in mountains under #globalchange! ↪️ We’ll share updates on our work & team led by @manuelaibrunner.bsky.social

Guess the gane

Almost HOLLYWOOD

Day 7 of holidays Probably first time that we will need sun protection lotion

Summertime!

I can held a workshop in my room for tonight….
