Misty peaks.
Mountains grew close to my heart during the time I lived in northern #Italy. Filled with hikes, friendships, science and life-changing ice cream, these times make some of my happiest memories.

Include biodiversity in decision making on new hydropower dams!

[Sonja Jähnig @SCJaehnig]

Our new study in @SciReports identifies impact areas of future large hydropower dams on #freshwater #megafauna in South America, South and East Asia, and the Balkan region - include #biodiversity in decision-making on new dams https://t.co/XQg2ZHcfOc

SMART alumnus Dr. Gregorio López Moreira @gregorlmm presented his research on shallow lakes today as part of an International Expert Seminar on 'Climate-related challenges for water management in Latin America', held this week in Porto Alegre, Brazil.

[Gregorio López Moreira @gregorlmm]

How do climate and land use change affect the ecological stability of our shallow lakes? Happy to have shared what I learned during @SMART_emjd with colleagues from all over Latin America as part of the International Expert Seminar taking place this week in Porto Alegre, Brazil.

[Maja Grubisic @Maja_Grubisic]

Honored to be on this list. I'm already looking forward to a great conference and stimulating talks, as on every ALAN conference I attended so far.

Striving to better understand how meandering rivers function, SMART doctoral candidate Tarun Bisht @fluvialtarun conducts his PhD research on the geometric and hydraulic controls of inner bank flow separation, presented today @ISRS2019 poster session #smartphd #riverscience

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

Groundwater also has a place in the #smartphd, as it is an important component of river systems. SMART alumnus Dr. Cagri Gokdemir @cagrigokdemir1 tell us how a stochastic risk model can help evaluate the impact of tunnel discharge on terrain vegetation @ISRS2019 poster session

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

How does land use lead to thermal discontinuities in lowland rivers? #smartphd alumna Dr. Roshni Arora @RoshniArora2 explains it today at the #isrs2019 @ISRS2019 poster session @BOKUvienna #riverscience

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

SMART alumnus Dr. Milad Niroumand @M_Niroumand is also presenting his work @ISRS2019 on advanced methods for #remotesensing of fluvial hydromorphology at #isrs2019 #riverscience @BOKUvienna @IEEE_GRSS

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

The #isrs2019 poster session has started and we are happy to provide a summary about the scientific impact of the #smartphd, presented by our alumni Dr. Gregorio López Moreira @gregorlmm and Dr. Alyssa Serlet, here accompanied by Prof. Geraldene Wharton @QMULGeography @ISRS2019

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

The oral presentations of our #smartphd special session at #isrs2019 have all been delivered, so it is time for the group photo! We are always happy to meet again to catch up on the most recent developments in #riverscience @ISRS2019 @BOKUvienna Coming up: SMART posters!

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

Intristic motivation is key to success in science. Follow your intuition, select the most fascinating research environment, think big, think long term. Prof. Dr. Klement Tockner @KlementTockner, one of the initiators of the @SMART_emjd programme, closes SMART session @ISRS2019

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

Water management in developing countries faces various challenges. The work by SMART alumnus Dr. Gregorio Lopez @gregorlmm on Ypacarai Lake in Paraguay helps to fill the research gap on shallow subtropical lakes @ISRS2019 @BOKUvienna #isrs2019

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

Water quality can be monitored via remote sensing. SMART alumnus Dr. Milad Niroumand-Jadidi proposes a new method to do so @ISRS2019 #isrs2019

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

@Cristin01089963 @alessandro_manf @Maja_Grubisic @gregorlmm and Matt Cashman

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

Continuing our special session @ISRS2019 talking about #mesocosms in @SMART_emjd program. Dr. Cristina Bruno gives an overview of #smartphd projects using Fersina flumes and LakeLab @LeibnizIGB. From #hydropeaking to #ALAN

[SMART PhD in River Science @SMART_emjd]

SMART alumnus Dr. Jaime Gaona on using #temperature as a tracer to characterise water pathways in the hyporheic zone. @ISRS2019 @BOKUvienna #isrs2019
