As we near the end of our #Landslides project Phase II, you can experience a high-res flythrough of Tristan da Cunha’s northern slopes - generated from 3,195 drone images. Visualize Dockel Gulch - a key source area of recent large #debrisflow & flooding events. #TristandaCunha

Excited to share a milestone in our #TristanLandslidesproject: @volcanna & I have just installed a new weather station at 800 meters on Tristan da Cunha, the world's most remote inhabited island! 🌧️ This isn't just another weather station! 🧵

And ultimately help to strengthen water security for the Tristanian community. It's amazing how a single installation can bridge the gap between meteorological research and everyday resilience for islanders. 🧵

Special thanks to Steve and Shane for lugging lots of heavy gear up the mountain to help make this happen! #ClimateScience #Sustainability #WaterSecurity #RemoteResearch #TristandaCunha #WeatherMonitoring

🌋 Mapping Change: A Return to Tristan da Cunha 🌧️
The island of Tristan da Cunha in the South Atlantic faces ongoing natural challenges such as landslides and coastal erosion. Recent severe floods, driven by heavy rain and steep terrain, have further impacted the community 🧵
ALT Source area for one of the landslides on the main cliffs behind the Settlement ca. 600m above sea level. One detached block can initiate a series of movements, which could lead to a chain reaction in landslide-prone areas.

Aquarius Survey & Mapping and @volcanna at the @BritGeoSurvey are conducting detailed surveys and installing monitoring equipment to track #topographic changes and understand #rainfall and #groundwater dynamics. 🧵

With funding from the @FCDOGovUK & the Tristan da Cunha Government, this collaborative project aims to improve our knowledge about hazards to support appropriate mitigation measures, working closely with the local community to support a sustainable future.

Beautifully clear night skies on Tristan da Cunha during our #TristanLandslides project. Seeing the #MilkyWay & #Magellanic clouds really showcases the amazing #darkskies of #Tristan 😍

Tristan da Cunha, home to the world's most remote community, is facing rising landslide risks as climate change reshapes its volcanic landscape 🌋
BGS scientist @volcanna is on the island, mapping hazards to help protect its 233 inhabitants.

Its #worldseabirdday, and a good reason to share a film I created for the #DarwinPlus project #monitoring and developing #conservation actions for seabirds of the Turks & Caicos Islands. #tci @TCISeabirds @SEG_UL @SAERI_FI @RhiAustin @BirdLifeAmerica 🪶 youtu.be/GJT__exVPxQ?si=U6EY…

With my #TristanDaCunha hat on, great to see @volcanna from @BritGeoSurvey presenting some of the interdisciplinary approaches for long-term science/policy/society engagement in data-poor volcanic settings at #CoV12

Ahead of the Reception this evening on the occasion of the launch of the UK-OT Joint Declaration, it seemed appropriate to share this short #dronephotography film about our work on Tristan da Cunha last year. youtu.be/mp0XZwAOtFE?si=An-w…

Eruptive activity is increasing once more at #Etna's Southeast Crater; cloud cover renders observations difficult. Video was taken while visibility was still decent, view is from home in Tremestieri Etneo, using my 3000 mm zoom. 12 November 2023

Aquarius Survey & Mapping has gone rogue, branching out from the marine world! 🌋Last month presented an opportunity to study Stromboli, and its Strombolian-style eruptions, named after the Italian island in the Mediterranean 🧵
