Hydrological extremes pose a serious threat to critical functions and services provided by terrestrial ecosystems. Anticipated increases in frequency severity of droughts due climate change is expected negatively impact ecosystem functioning vegetation health. The ability recover after drought episode an important metric the impact. Wide-spread impacts can result regional decrease resilience overall decline Analyzing post-drought recovery characteristics it spatial connectiveness provides...
Hydromorphological data for many estuaries worldwide is scarce and usually limited to offshore tidal amplitude remotely-sensed imagery. In projects, information about morphology intertidal area needed assess the effects of human interventions rising sea-level on natural depth distribution changing habitats. Habitat depends spatial pattern area, inundation time, peak flow velocities salinity. While numerical models can reproduce these patterns fairly well, their need computational costs are...
East Africa is comprised of many semi-arid lands that are characterized by insufficient rainfall and the frequent occurrence droughts. Drought, overgrazing other impacts due to human activity may cause a decline in vegetation cover, which result land degradation. This study aimed assess drought occurrence, cover changes resilience Monduli Longido districts northern Tanzania. Satellite-derived data rainfall, temperature were used. Monthly precipitation (CenTrends v1.0 extended with CHIRPS2.0)...
Watching the documentary ‘The Leadership’ led to a consentient discussion amongst colleagues. In this group of female scientists set off on cruise learn about and experience leadership. Personal experiences, what happens board statistics social safety, show that feeling socially safe included is still an issue (female) scientists, especially when working in field. The significantly high numbers field STEM research having experienced discrimination, gender inequality...
