La température des cours d’eau est un fil rouge qui relie l’oxygénation, la biodiversité, la qualité et les usages. Alors que le réchauffement s’intensifie et que les étiages s’allongent, comprendre pourquoi la thermie varie, comment la mesurer et quoi en faire devient décisif. Cet article propose des repères clairs, des méthodes concrètes, des indicateurs utiles … Read more
By integrating the surface velocity field, water height, and stream geometry, vorteX-io develops its own stream flow calculation tool, a major step towards reducing vulnerability to water-related hazards.
The alternation between droughts and floods creates a vicious circle in which periods of drought can accentuate the risk of flooding, and vice versa, amplifying the devastating impacts on the continent’s populations and ecosystems.
vorteX-io is leading a major project to measure river water quality using large-scale remote sensing with CNES and OFB.
When the climate gets out of control and drought and heatwaves combine, large-scale forest fires are unfortunately not the only risks to the natural environment. Aquatic areas and wetlands also suffer from this situation, sometimes dramatically.
