@VU_IVM Water & Climate Risk department day! We explored the interesting Waterloopbos & the beautiful city of Hasselt. We played the carillon, found the local streetart, and had drinks & dinner at a windmill. We had a lot of fun together! #HappyColleagues 😍

A whole year of record breaking ocean temperatures.
This warmth has significant effects on ocean ecosystems. A large fraction of the world’s human population rely on protein from the ocean to live. Disruption to life in the ocean does affect us all.

Only 2-days since #EGU23 ended, and I'm already nostalgic for the amazing PICOs, inspiring talks, and engaging posters... but most of all for the incredible new/old researchers/friends. Always great to be "contaminated" by our passion for studying #drought #floods #multihazards

#EGU23 is a wrap! The @VU_IVM Drought group had fun. We thoroughly enjoyed presenting our research, getting inspired and connecting to old and new science friends. Now #trainfromEGU and back next you for more #drought #sociohydrology #adaptation #compound #risk science!
