@ajbauer I got married in Germany last summer at the same venue as one of the creators of Bernd das Brot. The story of how they came up with it was one of the more entertaining parts of the tasting event!

Congrats @geoscilisa !!

#Copernicus for #wildfires monitoring

Furious #fires are raging in #Canada 🔥

Dry weather and shifting winds in western Canada have boosted the risk of spreading wildfires in the areas of Alberta and Saskatchewan

Looking forward to discussing this work with colleagues at #EGU23 this afternoon!

[Heather Murdock @HJMrdck]

Enjoyed getting to catch up with Flood Risk Masters alumni and profs from @ihedelft attending #EGU23 over Nepalese food #FRM

[Heather Murdock @HJMrdck]

A great first day at #EGU23 in the “Resilience building and risk reduction” session with my talk on flood early warning and a poster from @NatRiskChange colleague @liso0928 on social resilience. Many thanks to the conveners for bringing this together!

[Heather Murdock @HJMrdck]

@WSchwanghart @EuroGeosciences @LiinaStein @skalevag We might have been! Did you take the direct train from Berlin?

[Heather Murdock @HJMrdck]

Made it to Vienna on a train full of researchers! 🚞 Looking forward to the week ahead at @EuroGeosciences #EGU23

[Heather Murdock @HJMrdck]

Looking forward to attending EGU and speaking about recent research on flood early warning #EGU23

[United Nations @UN]

Malawi: The UN is stepping up its support following Tropical Cyclone Freddy, which has left widespread destruction and an unprecedented crisis in its wake. https://t.co/x43BnoJoFD

Cell broadcast emergency warning goes live in Germany today 🚨 An important additional tool for early warning services

[Heather Murdock @HJMrdck]

Looking pieces of the post-flood reconstruction puzzle today from soil types across catchments to burried creeks finding their old paths @NatRiskChange #TaskForce @liso0928

[Heather Murdock @HJMrdck]

Very interesting first day of field work in Italy surveying high water marks and flood damage from last fall @NatRiskChange #TaskForce

[Heather Murdock @HJMrdck]

After a day of train travel across the Alps, I’m looking forward to joining Italian colleagues this week for a Task Force trip in the Marche region @NatRiskChange #floodrisk #DRR

It was a pleasure to participate in this Berlin Science week event this weekend!

[Soapbox Science Berlin @berlin_soapbox]

Let's see what Heather Murdock (Soapbox 2: 1:30 - 2pm) is up to!

Heather's a hydrotechnical #engineer & #PhD #researcher at @UniPotsdamWater/@unipotsdam.

She's asking: "If a #flood was happening, how would you know?'

Let's see what she has to say!

[Heather Murdock @HJMrdck]

Berlin Science Week just kicked off and I’m looking forward to speaking about flood early warning on Saturday at the @SoapboxScience event! ⚠️💧@mfnberlin https://t.co/VQoIsOLXLt

Recent publication alert❗️from @NatRiskChange colleague Lisa Luna on the seasonality of landslides

[Lisa Luna @geoscilisa]

Exciting news! The first paper from my PhD work - "Seasonal landslide activity lags annual precipitation pattern in the Pacific Northwest" - has been accepted in Geophysical Research Letters! Preprint here: https://t.co/kOaGNtuEuQ

[Heather Murdock @HJMrdck]

Just wrapped up the fall @NatRiskChange retreat 🌊 From floods and wildfires to earthquakes and landslides it was great to hear more about the cohort’s research and spend some time together in the forests of Brandenburg 🌳🍄 #floodrisk #unipotsdam @UniPotsdamWater
