Benieuwd hoe het weer van vandaag eruit zou zien in het verleden en in de toekomst? Wij werken aan nieuwe methode ‘Future Weather’, waarbij we met behulp van klimaatmodellen het weer van vandaag in een kouder en warmer klimaat nabootsen. Met deze techniek kunnen we beter begrijpen hoe klimaatverandering ons weer beïnvloedt en hoe we ons hierop kunnen voorbereiden. https://www.knmi.nl/over-het-knmi/nieuws/het-weer-van-vandaag-in-de-toekomst #earlywarning

Om beter voorbereid te zijn op extremer weer en de gevolgen hiervan, ontwikkelt het KNMI zich tot een Early Warning Centre. In de Early Warning Podcast gaan KNMI’ers Rubert Konijn en Rob Sluijter in gesprek over wat dit betekent. Hierbij komt zo ongeveer alles rondom weer, klimaat en seismologie aan bod. Nu te beluisteren op onze website en je favoriete podcast app! Na de zomer komt er iedere maand een nieuwe aflevering online. #earlywarningpodcast #earlywarning https://www.knmi.nl/over-het-knmi/nieuws/early-warning-podcast-vervolg-op-succesvolle-knmi-podcastserie

Meeting with friends from the Technological Institute of Canary Islands & Senegal university. We talked about #earlywarning system in @gnuhealth and building distributed health networks in #Africa

Comparing earthquake locations and magnitudes from different algorithms is not straightforward, especially for earthquake early warning.

Jozinović et al. provide a minimum latency solution based on observed emerging waveform envelopes.
