We will keep underestimating the scale and complexity of cascading #geohazards in high mountains without a fundamental shift in perspective, policies, and their implementation.☝️Developing scenarios to facilitate impact based forecasting schemes is a way forward

😱 Every second person dies from unnecessary risk-taking behavior during #disasters. We need to educate the public to reduce #disaster mortality further.
👉 #ClimateChange is kicking in; we are facing more and more socio-natural #hazards without prior experience.

Me too!
With several fellow researchers, I also got my certificate of membership to join the young academy of Austrian Academy of Science.
Looking forward to collaborating with all the members.

I’ve been on a field trip around Medellín, Colombia for over a week now. Alongside amazing landscapes, we’ve observed a range of landslide-human interactions, both positive and negative. I'm very excited to keep exploring this with Edier Aristizabal, Anika Braun, and Johnny Vega.

We saw many #landslides along roads, only a few seemed natural. The #glacial landforms here are stunning.
