Home / Jobs / Postdoc: AI for Climate Downscaling over Antarctica @ KU Leuven
In this pursuit, we actively participate in the development of methodologies aimed at facilitating the generation of digital twins of the Earth. Our technological endeavors converge at the interface of multi-source satellite imagery, diverse models (e.g., climate, vegetation, ice sheets), and machine learning.

Home / Media Library / Aftermath caused by Cloud Burst and Flood in Kedarnath, Uttarakhand, India
In June 2013, a flood triggered by an extreme precipitation event struck India, killing 6,054 people in the provinces of Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Karnataka, Kerala, Gujarat, and West Bengal. The devastating impacts in this valley in Kedarnath, Uttarakhand, are still visible one year later.

Home / News / EGU news / It’s as easy as 1-2-3! Nominate candidates for EGU awards and medals by 30 June
The winners of the 2020 awards and medals will also be celebrated during EGU 2021 due to the cancellation of the in-person meeting earlier this year as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.

During her PhD, she has investigated: (i) the role of tides in driving intermittent, intense turbulent mixing (exchange) between water-masses and overturning cells in the Southern Ocean where they can influence upwelling rates and the strength of the global overturning circulation; (ii) eddy-tide interactions that allow heat dispersion over the Western Antarctic Peninsula’s continental shelf where marine glacier melt is sensitive to ocean heat content; (iii) The relative roles of (1) local seasonal sea-ice production and (2) dense Weddell Sea water pathways across the South Scotia Ridge in bringing dense waters into contact with warmer water masses (CDW) over the continental slope along the Antarctic Peninsula.
Home / Meetings / General Assembly / Special sessions
The EGU General Assembly is a large event both in size and in the number of disciplines represented. Aside from science, the meeting also features a number of sessions that highlight non-scientific skills and information that may be of interest to General Assembly participants, from policy to diversity and equality.

Based on this model, both soil moisture drought and compound flooding (CF) were studied. CF is an extreme event taking place in low-lying coastal areas as a result of co-occurring high sea level and large amounts of runoff, caused by precipitation. In the poster, the CF probability along the European coasts both for present and future climate is estimated according to the business-as-usual (RCP8.5) scenario.

Home / News / EGU news / Announcing EGU's newest journal: Geochronology
It will publish research in all aspects of geoscience that aim to determine times or rates of geologic events and processes, including, for example, basic research into fundamental physics and chemistry of geologic dating methods, applications across the full range of geosciences, and developments in standardization and intercomparison, statistical methods, data management, and computational infrastructure.
