Understanding how much #precip is transformed into #runoff (the event runoff coefficient) is strategic to forecast #floods . Here sciencedirect.com/science/articl… we evaluated the ability of different prestorm conditions proxies to explain event runoff coefficient variability of EU floods

Satellites unveil the far-reaching impact of irrigation. Behind the story of #irrigation research activity from European Space Agency perspective which also led a very important recent publication nature.com/articles/s4301… led by Sonali McDermid. Enjoy reading it

People from Argentina, USA, Germany and different parts of Italy have been working together in the Re della Pietra #experimental #catchment for a joint experiment on #simulated #rainfall and #stemflow , and #isotopic and #geophysical characterization of hillslope subsurface flow.

Happy to have attended this super interesting meeting about #drought in the Anthropocene. Very nice people and important discussions on the topic

Thanks Francesco Avanzi. Is not only matter of amount of precipitation but when and how this #precipitation falls, temperatures and basin initial conditions. Hydrological #Drought time scales are long and require a long shift in climate conditions to be recovered

Today we had an incredible time exploring the experimental catchment on Ussita River in Central Italy! Huge thanks to Christian Massari and Hydrology IRPI-CNR for maintaining this amazing site.

As humans use more and more water to irrigate this has fundamental implications for the #Earth system. We have discussed this in a new study in the Nature Reviews Earth & Environment 🌈 Hydrology IRPI-CNR CNR Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche CNR-DTA CNR IRPI

Today we installed time lapse cameras in the Re della Pietra #catchment to #monitor #wood mobilization and seasonal #stream #network #expansion and #contraction #dynamics . If you pass nearby please say cheese! #hydrology #hydraulics #ecohydrology #floods #sediment DAGRI - UNIFI

In Spain, a drought turns the world’s largest olive oil producing region brown.

NASA’s Terra satellite shows where green vegetation in May 2022 (left) turned brown by May 2023 (right). The drought dried up reservoirs, parched olive groves, and led to water restrictions.

A correct and insightful analysis of river management and flooding from well prepared colleagues.

I guess that's a wrap! My postdoc advisor, Roger Bales, always asks you a question: what did you learn today? At #EGU23 , I learned that, as EGU, we are stronger together. 18k attendees, 100+ countries, and one goal: leaving this world better - #Together !

#egu2023

Why we shall not neglect mild #droughts and how satellite #sentinel1 data can be used to improve model #irrigation Our two Friday presentations at EGU in collaboration with the Ku-leuven group, CIMA Research Foundation Sara Modanesi Francesco Avanzi #egu2023

What an amazing group of #drought researchers getting together at #EGU23 ! If you missed it, join us for dinner tonight at 7pm. 😍

Great poster ❤️❤️❤️

A preview of my poster for the upcoming #EGU23 . See you next thursday at 14.00, Hall A 🟥, for talking about #irrigation estimates from #space . 🛰️💧
Many interesting talks at the following oral session as well, looking forward to see you!

#EGU2023 is coming... if you want to know how we applied a parsimonious approch to correct the bias of satellite #precipitation data, I would be happy to see you and discuss more on Monday at 14:00 in Hall A.
