From #SalineIntrusion to coastal flooding, #SeaLevelRise 🌊 threatens coastal areas in several ways.
It's #WorldWaterWeek. The climate crisis is leading to more extreme events such as droughts and floods. These changes can affect water availability and quality.
#Seagrass ecosystems are coastal habitats that play many roles. They help combat #climatechange, they protect our coasts and contribute to our wellbeing.
#Peatlands help combat #climatechange by naturally storing carbon underground.
Wetlands are powerful nature-based solutions to tackle different environmental challenges such as water pollution. On #WorldWetlandsDay, discover #EOSsg work on nature-based solutions: https://bit.ly/3SD82jX
Did you know that not all #tsunamis 🌊 are caused by earthquakes in subduction zones? The tsunami following the 2018 Palu earthquake is an example. Studying interactions between earthquakes and tsunamis is a key part of #InVEST_EOS: https://bit.ly/InVEST_EOSweb
Aceh, located in northern Sumatra, Indonesia, is marked with unusual seismic and volcanic activities. For instance, unusually the volcanic arc has migrated north over time. Find out what drives the unusual volcanic and seismic activities in northern Sumatra: https://bit.ly/3AywQmx
Why are some volcano eruptions more explosive than others?
Lava flows from volcanic eruptions threaten surrounding communities. A study led by #EOSsg and ASE explores the frequency and severity of past lava flow impact events, which refer to impacts during a stage of effusive activity where at least one lava flow impacted the built environment (buildings and/or infrastructure). Find out what they discovered: https://bit.ly/4dt5MmO #InVEST_EOS #FactFriday
