The #EGU24 PICO session on Human Water Feedbacks was a big success! Thanks to all the speakers and the interested audience. @IleenStreefkerk presented her work on drought adaptation in East Africa and gathered a nice crowd. @VU_IVM @D2E_Project

What I loved most about #EGU24? Seeing colleagues shine, grow, find collaborations & build networks. And dance the night away at the convener's reception! 💃 Thanks @EuroGeosciences

🔍What do you spot in this photo? I see - DROUGHT - resilience, adaptation, hazard, impacts, forecasting, etc... But most importantly, I see the JOY of our work! Do you feel our energy? 💪🌾 - IVM Drought group 2023 - Explore our research here: hydrologicalextremes.org

When you cannot come to the office, the office will come to you! Thanks to my lovely colleagues we had a good working day in sunny Utrecht. ☀️😍

Not good news for a region already suffering from the impacts of multiple failed rainy seasons over the past years. There are limits to adaptation and coping, especially in a situation of high vulnerability and limited resources.

Below-normal rainfall is expected for March-May in drought-hit Horn of Africa, says @icpac_igad The risk of an unprecedented sixth poor rainy season will have devastating humanitarian impact in Ethiopia, Kenya and Somalia. Details 🔗 bit.ly/3EqwWvC

Putting the 2022 #drought in the Netherlands in perspective. A new blog by the @VU_IVM drought research group: hydrologicalextremes.org/2023/02/01/dut… What were the propagation processes, impacts, adaptation measures, communication, and is it over yet? And what can our research contribute?

New paper alert‼️📢 IVMer @IleenStreefkerk and co-authors developed a coupled agent-based and hydrological model that captures the dynamic feedbacks between human-behaviour, and #drought hazard & impact. @FrontiersIn @VU_Science frontiersin.org/articles/10.33…

📣new paper led by @IleenStreefkerk ! In this paper we present a coupled agent-based and hydrological model and show how farmer adaptation in response to drought events influences both the human and natural system through space and time in a catchment near Mount Kenya

New paper out!🥳It presents a conceptual modelling framework that captures the dynamic feedbacks between human-behaviour, and drought hazard & impact.💧doi.org/10.3389/frwa.2…

20 IVM scientists lend their support to this open letter calling for an urgent end to fossil fuel subsidies in the Netherlands. These subsidies are a major obstacle in our efforts to guarantee a safe and just future: fd.nl/opinie/1459177… @VUamsterdam @FD_Nieuws

This is what drought looks like… how far did these women walk? How many hours to get water? How far did the community have to dig? #climatecrisis #humanitariancrisis #climateactionnow #locallyledaddaptation #LLAD@ifrc⁩ ⁦@mkvaalst⁩ ⁦@UNDRR⁩ ⁦@UNFCCC

Sometimes doing your own research creates an illusionary feeling that you are alone, that you must figure it out by yourself. So I am thankful to be part of this group that reminds each of us that we are not alone, we have each other. 🌳✨

Drought group writing week 2022! 👩‍💻🍂 Writing surrounded by inspiring people & landscape! Colleagues helped me get unstuck with paper I've been trying to write for a year. Or was it the sound of birds, the rays of sun through autumn leaves, the squirrels chasing each other...?

The Horn of Africa is facing drought and crop failures after four inadequate rainy seasons, a first in the 40-year satellite record. Scientists and aid agencies are alerting the world to unprecedented food insecurity for Ethiopia, Kenya, and Somalia. go.nasa.gov/3Ps81dN
