Isometric’s Post

Proud of my dad, Professor İsmail Türkan; a groundbreaking #experiment will be performed in #space, impacting #sustainability, #agriculture, and #foodsecurity. 🌱🚀 A milestone in #space exploration, led by #TUBİTAKUZAY and the #TurkishSpaceAgency. Among the experiments, Extremophyte' stands out, spearheaded by my father and his team Dr. Rengin Uzilday and Dr. Barıs Uzilday. The Extremophyte experiment could revolutionize our understanding of plant resilience in #space and #Earth. 🌏 🛰 Experiment: Picture this: #Plants, #genes, and #outerspace! 🚀 Researchers will explore the salt stress response of salt-tolerant Schrenkiella parvula —at physiological and molecular levels. The plants will be germinated and nurtured aboard the #InternationalSpaceStation (ISS). It's like a botanical survival challenge in space!   🌱 Why does it matter? It's a quest to understand how plants adapt to extreme environments, paving the way for super-resilient crops here on Earth. Think #climatechange, challenging soils, and beyond. 🌾   🔍 What's in it for us? *Space Secrets Unveiled: How does microgravity influence the growth of an extremophile and some of the genetic aspects under salinity? We're about to find out! *Climate-Proof Crops: Discoveries here could lead to growing crops that thrive in harsh conditions. #SpaceExperiment #SpaceBotanic AXIOMSPACE

This is how PhDs should start! 🙌👏 Thrilled to share the outstanding achievement of our teammate Filip Gałdyn, whose groundbreaking research article titled "Long-term ice mass changes in Greenland and Antarctica derived from satellite laser ranging" has just been published in the prestigious journal Remote Sensing of Environment, with an impressive Impact Factor of 13.5! 🚀📚 Full article here -> https://lnkd.in/djrBVcrS 🔍 In the article, we demonstrate that Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) opens new avenues for studying ice mass changes in polar regions, providing unprecedented insights. The reprocessing of historic SLR data reveals that there were no significant ice mass changes in Greenland and Antarctica during the 90s. Another critical finding highlights that Greenland experienced the most substantial ice mass loss between 2010 and 2015, emphasizing the urgency of addressing climate-related challenges. Interestingly, the process of ice loss decelerated from 2015 to 2019, only to accelerate again afterward, indicating dynamic and complex environmental changes. 🎉 I am proud of Filip Gałdyn and the whole team from Uniwersytet Przyrodniczy we Wrocławiu (me and Krzysztof Sośnica) and @University of Bern (Ulrich Meyer and Jaeggi Adrian) for dedication, hard work, and contribution to advancing our understanding of the planet Earth! 🌍❄️🙌👏

"AGU is a hub for Earth science research presentations. Scientists from ranges of backgrounds gather at the conference annually to share, discuss, and disseminate information on a wide variety of topics all relating back to one thing we all have in common – Earth. Topics span from global environmental change and natural hazards to atmospheric sciences and ocean sciences, and much more. To research those topics, scientists need data. So much of that data about Earth comes from satellites that are way up in space, looking back at the planet where they were made." #satellitedata #remotesensing #earthscience

If you are attending #AGU23 and are interested in #infrasound and #seismoacoustics, please consider joining us on Monday the 11th and Tuesday the 12th for our session “Terrestrial and Planetary Seismoacoustics in Coupled Geophysical Media”. This session focuses on advances in seismoacoustic research in both theory and application. The session is dedicated to provide a better understanding of the relevant sources and the complexity of propagation in coupled geophysical media (i.e., the solid earth-ocean-atmosphere system), as well as to develop the various available observation techniques. https://lnkd.in/g4qhFmGJ

Glad for my first attendance at the European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly 2024 and and to share the activities carried out in the framework of the research grant "Application of new methods and techniques based on the use of multimission/multifrequency SAR data for the analysis of slow kinematic landslides", which is part of the activity carried out by the Department of Earth Sciences of the Università degli Studi di Firenze and IREA CNR within the project funded by Agenzia Spaziale Italiana "DInSAR - 3M". The progress of the work led to the development of a procedure for the quantitative assessment of the physical vulnerability of buildings exposed to slow moving landslides, exploiting InSAR data obtained from the processing of large stacks of radar images acquired by the Sentinel-1 satellite constellation through the P-SBAS processing chain. The result is the development of fragility and vulnerability curves for masonry buildings in the northern Apennines (Italy). Here the links of the abstract: https://lnkd.in/dMdeQ9-W
