Ok, next level. Simulating a landslide hitting a proglacial lake, producing a #GLOF. Note that the flood is (not yet) able to erode but just spills through two channels. In reality, the displacement wave would probably incise and widen the outflow channels, triggering a more severe flood downstream.

GraphFlood is finally available in the MATLAB version of TopoToolbox. Check out my latest blog entry. Simulating steady flow has never been as easy as this. topotoolbox.wordpress.com/2025/07/30/g... #TopoToolbox #Hydrology #Hydraulics #Flood

Just out in Science Advances with @topotoolbox.bsky.social: Submarine canyons preferentially form where the seafloor is steepest—not where rivers bring much sediment. Our global study reveals what controls canyon distribution and the world’s oceans. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

🌊 Tiefsee-Canyons: riesig, verborgen – und klimarelevant. Eine neue Studie von @sedsystems.bsky.social und @topotoolbox.bsky.social zeigt: Entscheidend für deren Entstehung ist nicht die Nähe zu Flüssen, sondern wie steil der der Meeresboden ist. #ScienceAdvances ➡️ Alle Infos: tinyurl.com/a3kekm2m

Here's my first blog entry on using #TopoToolbox with #Python. See how to run Boris Gailleton's GraphFlood and display water depth along with a longitudinal river profile. topotoolbox.wordpress.com/2025/04/15/p...

TopoToolbox 3 has some cool new functions. Here's how to export stream networks to shapefiles (and kml): topotoolbox.wordpress.com/2025/04/09/c... #TopoToolbox #MATLAB #terrainanalysis #geomorphometry #geomorphology

Heard of TopoToolbox? Now is your chance to contribute to the development of this useful toolset, now w/ python & R implementations! Check out the @egu.eu GM blog post blogs.egu.eu/divisions/gm... by @topotoolbox.bsky.social on a recent hackathon and new #github organization github.com/TopoToolbox/

Last week, we had a #TopoToolbox Hachathon in Berlin. Read more about it here blogs.egu.eu/divisions/gm...

Angesichts der aktuellen Ergebnisse der Merz-Union & SPD zur Klimapolitik, hier noch einmal die Worte von Prof. Latif: "Ich kann Politikerinnen und Politikern nichts mehr beibringen. Die wissen alles. Da gibt es keinen Beratungsbedarf mehr. Sie handeln wider besseren Wissens".

On #WorldGlacierDay, our paper in @science.org about the Sikkim glacial lake disaster has been published in its final form: 🧪⚒️❄️ www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

#TopoToolbox has a scale bar that you can add to some axes. Now, the scale bar also works with axes that represent geographical coordinates. Nice to see how the length of the scale bar changes once you pan northward.

Our paper on how landscape evolution impacts the trajectory of life is out in @science.org! Work by two great post-docs in @iuearth.bsky.social and collaboration with the brilliant Tara Smiley of Stony Brook resulted in this. www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...

“DeSmog can also reveal that the Heritage Foundation has been holding private meetings with European politicians in recent months, as the group attempts to forge new alliances on the continent.” In Deutschland war die Foundation vor kurzem wieder bei der CDU (s.u.) www.desmog.com/2025/03/14/h...

Hello Bluesky! EGU is pleased to be able to activate our account here, and share all the exciting news about the upcoming General Assembly: #EGU25, our #OpenAccess publications and more! Several of our Divisions will be making the move over from Twitter/X too, so keep an eye out for your favourites!

Exciting interdisciplinary postdoc opportunity, combining landscape evolution, and the evolution of species. You might also end up collaborating with me, on constraining mountain building in the Northern Andes. jobs.ethz.ch/job/view/JOP...

This is the kinda shit that happens when you ignore science and scientists. Just go ask people whose homes burned in wildfires, were swept away by floods, or are inundated by rising sea level. In red states and blue. Hear no climate harm, see no climate harm, do lots of climate harm. 🧪 #scicomms

Hello Bluesky! 🦋🏞️ We are organizing weekly seminars for scientists to present their research in and around geomorphology. Affiliated with @eurogeosciences.bsky.social GM More information on our website: www.landscapeslive.org

Public notice: If you want to read a research article, please don't pay for the paper on the publisher's website. All that money goes to the publisher, we don't get any of it. Instead, contact us. We'll be happy to send you the paper :-).

Gestern Abend sollte ich auf einem Podium kurz die wichtigsten Folgen der Klimawandels zusammenfassen. Ich war nicht ganz zufrieden mit meiner Antwort. Nicht prägnant genug, manches vergessen... Heute habe ich ChatGPT gefragt - und war überrascht, wie kompetent die Antwort war! Probiert es selbst.

Tomorrow's the last day of my one-week #BSc level #TopoToolbox course. At the end, students will be able to calculate stream networks, analyze them, and combine geospatial modelling and visualization techniques. This course has a steep learning curve, but is also great fun.

I argue here we need to follow the science not the whims of politicians. Greenland's value is its ice. Free to republish. Pass it on. Spread the word. We need to bring science and rational thought back into the national dialogue . @us.theconversation.com 💙📚🧪 theconversation.com/greenlands-r...

Slashing of Federal science support - so awful for people who have worked so hard to support America's science enterprise for at the National Science Foundation. This is hardly the way to innovate and solve pressing problems like climate change and biodiversity. www.science.org/content/arti...

"Remember Trump’s Florida estate, Mar-a-Lago. Four feet of sea-level rise floods the lower lawn. Six feet and the Atlantic Ocean may trickle into the lobby.

Good morning, #Berlin.

Der gleiche Fehler, immer wieder, überall. Man schwächt die Rechten nicht, indem man ihre Themen übernimmt !!!

This should be happening EVERYWHERE!

Time for a #ScienceMarchOnWashington with star power like Bill Nye. We need leaders like @zekeemanuel.bsky.social petitioning college presidents to go to Congress, and teach-ins by Nobel Laureates to teach students what's happening. Where are the leaders? Repost to help find them 🧪

Welcome to the Bluesky account for Stand Up for Science 2025! Keep an eye on this space for updates, event information, and ways to get involved. We can't wait to see everyone #standupforscience2025 on March 7th, both in DC and locations nationwide! #scienceforall #sciencenotsilence
