Join our new #EGU26 session on “Freshwater Temperatures: From Local to Global Scales” from 3 to 8 May 2026, on-site in Vienna and virtually!
We ( @manuelaibrunner.bsky.social , Michelle van Vliet, Felipe Saavedra, James White, and myself) invite abstract submissions to our session HS2.3.3!

📈 Low flows show mixed effects — they can increase or decrease depending on local conditions.

🏔️ Reservoir constructions are often connected to changes in the mean flow – but these changes are poor indicators for changes of extreme flows

Using data from before and after reservoirs began their operations, along with upstream–downstream comparisons, they found that:

💧 Floods are generally smaller downstream of large reservoirs — 2-year floods drop by ~40 % when reservoir storage exceeds one month of average flow.

👩‍🚒 👩‍💼 👩‍⚕️ We enjoyed the wonderful opportunity to exchange with wildfire researchers, managers, and firefighters!

🐦‍🔥 Stay fiery, but don't get burnt.
