The massive underwater volcanic eruption in Tonga was so powerful it was recorded around the world and triggered a tsunami that flooded Pacific coastlines from Japan to the United States. The Tonga’s shock wave caused a spike in barometric pressure outputs across the world, which is cleary detachable in the air-pressure signal measured by our meteorological stations located in Iseo and Castro on 15/1 at 20.55.
Nell’ambito delle attività a carattere internazionale, segnalo i seguenti seminari che si terranno questo martedi e venerdi al link https://meet.google.com/ufo-gjnh-tvk
Martedi 18/5/2021 13.45-15.30
Dr. Victor Stepanenko : “1D lake modeling: concepts, examples, applications”
Venerdì 21/5/2021 14.30-16.30
Dr. Victor Stepanenko : “New developments in 1D lake models: treatment of internal motions and mixing, biogeochemistry of greenhouse gases”
The last issue of Hydrolink, the primary magazine of the IAHR community, is dedicated to hydraulic research dealing with deep lakes. The articles of this issue of Hydrolink are a call for action to address the threats to deep lakes resulting from climate change and increased nutrient loads from various human activities. An overview of several studies addressing these issues in Lake Iseo in Italy is also present, including our research activities! On the cover, the floating station managed by our hydrulic group.

Il lago d’Iseo non è nuovo agli eventi di questi giorni e in passato è stato già interessato da eventi franosi che hanno avuto effetti non trascurabili sulle proprie sponde. Già dall’inizio di Marzo abbiamo fatto alcune simulazioni preliminari che fanno comprendere come potrebbe svolgersi la propagazione delle onde impulsive conseguenti al possibile crollo della frana di Tavernola.
On the 20th of September we concluded the installation of a limnological floating station on Lake Garda.
The station is located in front of Manerba, in the southern-western side of the lake, and is moored at a 100m-deep point. It is measuring at 1/min frequency wind speed and direction, air temperature and humidity, net total long wave radiation, water temperature at 19 depths between 0 and 99m, and dissolved oxygen at 99m depth. Details of the instruments are provided at: http://hydraulics.unibs.it/hydraulics/stazione-galleggiante-di-manerba/
The real-time data will be available soon on the web.
In questi giorni sulla stampa locale ha fatto molto discutere la comparsa, la mattina del 27 Aprile, di una macchia nella parte nord del lago. Tale evento fornisce un’occasione per gettare uno sguardo sul complesso campo delle correnti del Lago d’Iseo e per apprezzare l’importanza di un costante monitoraggio al fine di comprendere gli eventi che interessano il lago. A questo link http://hydraulics.unibs.it/hydraulics/il-monitoraggio-del-lago-diseo/osservazioni-di-fenomenti-di-interesse/ si mostrano e commentano i dati ripresi dalle nostre stazioni di misura per fornire una chiave interpretativa, molto semplificata, di quanto accaduto.
On Friday 18 May 2008 the Environmental Hydraulics class visited the irrigation system managed by Consorzio di Irrigazioni Cremonesi.
On Thursday 10th of May, Manerba hosted the 2nd edition of the workshop Garden (Promoting research on Lake Garda by sharing scientific experiences developed in other lakes), organized by Università di Brescia and Università Cattolica. Scientists of different disciplines (physical limnology, atmospheric physics, ecology, remote sensing), professionals, and public officers, met to share the experiences developed in the lakes of the alpine and pre-alpine area, as well as to discuss about future directions of the scientific research on Lake Garda.
