🌊 🛰️ New method allows now to utilize #Sentinel-3 altimetry data to get reliable water level measurements for rivers as narrow as 20m. This is especially helpful to expand monitoring to ungauged basins.

#FloodRisk #Hydrology #FloodSky
A new method uniquely validates #Sentinel3 river altimetry by using off-nadir reflections that align directly with in-situ gauges, fixing a major slope-bias problem in narrow rivers.

Made a collection inspired by this, for @leaflet.pub x atproto community tinkering!

Lots of cool integrations & interop & experiments — from other apps rendering leaflet posts to cross-posting and import tools and markdown pipelines, even leaflet as headless CMS for an *atprotated* website :)

Imagery from @planet.com has captured the 4 November 2025 landslide at Mae Moh Mine in Thailand. It shows the failure was about 4.8 km long and 1.4 km wide. There appears to have been coal waste dumping on the area that failed in the weeks before the landslide.

Finland is betting on dirt to boost children’s health and early results are remarkable. By replacing asphalt with forest soil, researchers found kids developed stronger immune systems in just weeks. As Europe faces rising autoimmune diseases, this simple return to nature could be a game-changer.

Spring tide + heavy rain = flood alert. Naturally local Facebook has changed from a place where experienced infrastructure project managers hang out to a conference of hydrologists. Couple of dry days and the roadworks will be back on the agenda I'm sure.

It is incredible to see how much been iterated upon with Leaflet at such a small time scale and with relatively so few users. Imagine what happens when it's not a small niche implementation of ATProto but effectively a canonized companion app to Bluesky.
Nice tool for adding *latest posts* from a Leaflet blog anywhere in another doc or post!

See demo for an example of Leaflet as personal homepage ✨

You can even customize color + number of posts to show :)
🚀 Built a free tool for @leaflet.pub users! Easily embed your latest publication posts on any leaflet document (perfect for personal websites).

Has anyone used Lekan #opensource for hydrological/hydraulic modelling?
Be interested to here what #DTM resolution is needed and when you're using it i.e. catchment, sub-catchment or more granular domains

This is good reporting on the disaster in Alaska if you're looking for a reliable summary.

This is a bigger disaster than I think most are realizing. 1500 people have been displaced by the flooding with an exceptionally complicated response and recovery.
