Oceans are some of the most challenging environments. Even though the Earth is 70% underwater, we know so little about them. Advancing our engineering prowess underwater allows us to progress as inhabitants of this planet.

Congratulations to the interdisciplinary team of #NTUsg students for their outstanding performance at the Singapore #AutonomousUnderwaterVehicle Challenge 2024 (sauvc). The undergrad team secured third prize with exceptional navigation skills and are now preparing for the MATE

I had so much fun doing this! Climate connections is a great breakfast-time program that dives into important environmental issues that intertwine with our day to day lives. I spoke about our work in the Bali rice fields and how to mitigate GHG emissions from rice production.

Greetings from Austria🇦🇹! #EOSsg scientists are at #EGU24 this week, presenting their research and engaging with other participants to develop collaborations and advance research on #geohazards and #ClimateChange. #volcano #earthquake #tsunami #climate

Gina Sarkawi shares with us about the link between #corals and #earthquakes in yet another episode of Clarence's #Science & #Research series! #researchers #phdlife Earth Observatory SG

🚨New Perspective! Human modifications to the environment can amplify the hazards from earthquake-triggered landslides, liquefaction & tsunami🌊⚠️ This Perspective by Emma Hill et al. discusses these links to identify steps for hazard mitigation nature.com/articles/s4301…

The Dr Stephen Riady Geoscience Scholars Fund has awarded over S$45K to postgraduates Alina Bill-Weilandt, Yochi Okta Andrawina, and Hu Jie, PhD students at Asian School Of The Environment, supervised by ASE faculty, who are also Principal Investigators at #EOSsg. Congrats! earthobservatory.sg/news/news/thre…

Curious about how land use changes affect secondary earthquake hazards? Our latest review paper examines global instances where urbanization and landscape alterations have exacerbated eq related hazards.

Calling all teachers in Singapore! #EOSsg is proud to announce that the 2nd iteration of the Earth Alive Inter-School Challenge is in partnership with the U.S. Embassy Singapore and in support of MSE Singapore #GoGreenSG 2024 campaign. 👉earthobservatory.sg/news/events/ea… Science Centre SG

Different human activities such as deforestation can decrease slope stability and amplify the earthquake-induced landslide hazard. Check out this study led by #EOSsg & Asian School Of The Environment scientists to learn more: earthobservatory.sg/news/blog/unde…

A M5.9 earthquake just struck offshore Sumatra, Indonesia. This was a subduction event, right in the gap between the great earthquakes of 2004 & 2005. Records from ancient corals suggest that earthquake ruptures have stopped here before. Read more on our blog; link in my bio.

I'll be doing some outreach at the Singapore Central library NLBSingapore on the 9th of June, talking about the world of underwater sound, and why it is relevant to understanding our environment :). Do pop in if you're around. The event is open to all: eventbrite.sg/e/a-journey-th…

It ties up ~3 yrs of research on detecting sounds of dolphins, dugongs etc from 10 island sites around #Singapore (focusing on acoustic method itself now rather than behavioral). Idea is to use this to understand visitation trends for biodiversity and impact assessment (2/2).

Last year,we explored marine robots to study glaciers in the Arctic.We started with a low-cost robot to test the waters (or the ice!) in these glacial fjords. Now we have some Polish TV coverage with our "Glacial Ablation MOnitoring Robot" (GLAMOR): vod.tvp.pl/programy,88/st… (1/2)

The third #InVEST_EOS Quarterly Workshop held on Wednesday was filled with insightful and interactive discussions, with the focus on earthquake and volcanic cycles. Participants had the opportunity to share their research interests and connect with others. A big thanks to

Had fun presenting at OCEANS Conference in Halifax about our passive-acoustic monitoring system to track #biodiversity in #Singapore waters, focusing on marine mammals like #dolphins and #dugongs. This cloud-enabled system detects vocalizations, determines direction of calls,... (1/2)

Thrilled to announce my recent published work on polar monitoring using comp vision at IEEE OCEANS, a culmination of fieldwork in Svalbard last year. It focuses on estimation of floating ice distribution in glacial bays using aerial imagery by fine-tuning+robustifying a SAM (1/2)
