Show your students how researchers are trying to understanding more about them and how their findings could improve earthquake forecasting. Included is a summary of a current research project and an interview with Dr Ake Fagereng. The activity sheet includes discussion points (questions that students can answer in groups or individually) and links to find out more about similar research expeditions. Go back
Home / Media Library / Modern, nonbiting bidge on a flowering apple tree
A modern, male, nonbiting midge (Chironomidae: Tanytarsini) on a flowering apple tree in Munich, Germany. Chironomids are found from the tropics to the Arctic and Antarctica, and have existed over long spans of geologic history, making them a promising candidate for palaeoecology studies.

No Do you need permissions to access the location? No Description From Imaggeo.egu.eu: The Pericink waterfall is a two levels waterfall located in the Vrata valley (Triglav national park, Slovenia). During the winter, the waterfall freeze partly or totally and builds several nice ice stalactites and ice drapes. As the soil on the surrounding is all the year totally water saturated, the winter time provides us an interressting view of the groundwater motion and a "delayed groundwater recharge". http://imaggeo.egu.eu/view/1390/ Geographic location 13.8932 E, 46.4413 N Go back

The study presented at EGU concerns observations of TGFs accompanied by Elves by the Atmosphere-Space Interactions Monitor (ASIM). 17 simultaneous observations of TGFs and Elves were presented and compared to other TGF detections by the ASIM instrument and to a large set of lightning radio atmospherics detected by the global lightning detection network GLD360.

Her research investigates carbon stocks and accumulation within seagrass meadows, saltmarshes, and shelf-sea sediments around the Isle of Man. In her poster presentation at EGU24 she demonstrated that saltmarshes have the greatest organic carbon density, whilst shelf-sea sediments have the most significant organic carbon stock due to their vast 500 km 2 area. These results can be used to prioritise areas for blue carbon management.
