Towards the  end of my stay in New Zealand I took the opportunity to walk one of the Great Walks, the Routeburn Track, which is location in the Mount Aspiring and Fiordland National Parks, south-west of the South Island. For the whole track over the distance of 32 km which I walked in three days. The track winds through beautiful beech forest, across tussock-covered flats, over the Harris Saddle, passes subalpine shrublands, alpine tarns and bogs.

They were dairy farmers and these few days on the track were their only only holidays for the last year. We had a great conversation about sustainable agriculture and manure management. They had apparently even won an industry award for best effluent management and  they collaborated with scientists and an innovative company that developed a solution to reduce the smell of a manure. That was a great example of scientists, ent...

EGU 2018 and visiting Z_GIS

Image
From 8th to 13th of April I attended European Geosciences Union General Assembly in Vienna, Austria. The EGU General Assembly 2018 is massive conference with almost 5000 oral, 11 000 poster, and 1500 PICO presentations. There were 15 000 scientists. I attended mainly hydology and data management and modelling sessions which had very interesting and cutting edge presentations. I presented "Challenges in identifying small-scale wetlands using remote sensing" in session "Water Level, Storage, Floods and Discharge from Remote Sensing and Assimilation in Hydrodynamic Models".  I also took a chance to participate in different workshops from "How to communicate science" to "Google Earth Engine" and statistics. Attending Google Earth Engine workshop EGU venue After EGU we made a short visit to Geoinformatics Department in University of Salzburg where we also had an opportunity to visit  some field sites with sensor stations. Visiting fie...

Last days in New Zealand

Last weeks in New Zealand were very busy with wrapping everything up. I'm grateful that I could work with such great people and learn a lot. Thank you all! I'll continue working on research started there and implementing the knowledge aquired at NIWA. With my two favourite Chrises from NIWA :)
