Happy to share that this happened just right before EGU:

I successfully defended my PhD thesis “Hydrological Droughts in the Netherlands: from Simulations to Projections using Data-Driven methods”. 😊

Impressive overview talk given by Michelle van Vliet of Physical Geography - Utrecht University EGU Hydrology 2024 about the interplay of water quality and water scarcity under extremes.

With my #Mars research in the paper today NRC Wetenschap! Hope that it makes people as excited as I am about debris flows on the red planet 😁

Delighted to announce our latest research, just published in Nature Communications: Despite global dam constructions, sediment concentration in global deltas' water columns has increased since 2000.👇 BU Earth & Environment Physical Geography - Utrecht University

We as @UU_Hydrology group (Physical Geography - Utrecht University ) hope to meet you at EGU EGU Hydrology 2024 in Vienna.

The Seds Online Webinar 'Why do sand dunes from? A geometric perspective' is available on YouTube: youtu.be/onI2Zb4yA5s

We have a new 2-year postdoc vacancy focusing on glacier lake- ice dynamics in the Himalaya, including fieldwork and modelling. The deadline for applications is 10 May!

First PhD chapter of Eva Lansu published in Nature communications! Eva shows that our sandy coasts are heavily squeezed which severely hampers accommodation space for SLR and has consequences for biodiversity (chapter 2…). nature.com/articles/s4146…

Klimaatblog @NRC: Als water schaars wordt, gaat de kwaliteit ervan vaak achteruit. Opiniestuk door Michelle van Vliet Physical Geography - Utrecht University nav een toekomstvisie die ze eerder schreef voor Nature Water uu.nl/opinie/als-wat… Utrecht University

Hoe lozen we de rivieren in een steeds hogere zee? Alle keuzes hebben grote waterbedeffecten die heel het land aangaan en dus systeemdenken vereisen, aldus Marjolijn Haasnoot @lijnonline, Hans Middelkoop en Maarten Kleinhans Physical Geography - Utrecht University nos.nl/artikel/250401… Utrecht University

Om #waterschaarste te verminderen hebben we een beter begrip nodig van de wisselwerking tussen #waterkwaliteit en #watergebruik .

It's so nice when conference friends become collaborators! Caroline Friedl (BOKU University ) and I have been working on a new project Physical Geography - Utrecht University on bedrock erosion by #debrisflows together with our student Joëlle. Combining our expertise has been a blast! #FlumeFriday

Deltas are not just under threat of climate change and sea-level rise. What are those threats, and what are the solutions? Frances Dunn & Murray Scown share their recent research in The Conversation:
