~ Louise Slater

At the EGU General Assembly in Vienna this year, I will be:

  • Co-convening the oral session ‘Hydrological extremes: from droughts to floods’ (Orals | Posters; HS2.4.1) on Monday 8th April, Orals 8:30-15:45, room B; Posters 16:15–18:00, hall A (unfortunately the poster session overlaps with the short course below)
  • Co-convening the short course ‘Using R in Hydrology‘ on Monday 8th, 16:15-18:00, room -2.16 (basement!). Also presenting a talk on ‘Parallel and HPC computing for hydrologists’.
  • Co-author on ‘Intensity-Duration-Frequency curves at the global scale‘ (Courty et al., EGU2019-2122), on Tuesday 9th, 10:50 am, PICO spot 5b (10:30-12:30) in session HS7.7, Hydroclimatic and hydrometeorologic stochastics.
  • Presenting our recent paper ‘Using R in Hydrology‘ (Slater et al., EGU2019-2823), on Friday 12th, 8:46 am. PICO spot 5b (8:30-10:15) in session HS1.2.7, Innovative methods to facilitate open science and data analysis in hydrology.

Other planned talks for 2019 are listed here.

AGU 2018

~ Louise Slater

I’m excited to present two papers at the AGU Fall meeting in Washington D.C. in December this year –

  • One hydrology paper: Slater, L.J., Anderson B., Blum, A., Archfield S., Attribution of changes in hydrologic extremes to changing land cover, AGU USA →  session H51L: The Role of Data in Understanding and Attributing Changes in Hydrologic Extremes (Friday 14 December, 08:00 – 10:00; H51L-1446)
  • One geomorphology paper: Slater, L.J., Khouakhi, A., Climate modes of variability and fluvial response over interannual to multidecadal timescales → session EP52B: Signatures of Climate Change in Surface Processes I (Friday 14 December, 11:20am,  147A; EP52B-05)

And our exciting session on ‘Flooding and Geomorphology‘:

  • Advances in Incorporating Geomorphology and Flooding: Feedbacks and Impacts on Flood Risk Posters (Monday 10 December, 08:00 – 12:20, Poster Hall A-C; EP11E).
