Seminar - Global analysis of rivers with deep learning

Speaker: Prof. Patrice Carbonneau, Department of Geography, Durham University (UK) - Monday, 17 April – 3:30 PM | Classroom 2M

17.04.2023

Many obstacles remain in place and the construction of a data processing pipeline that can effectively deliver global scale river classification is not trivial. This seminar will present a prototype pipeline that combines deep learning with classical remote sensing and image processing methods in order to produce semantic classes for rivers, lakes and gravel bars from Sentinel-2 imagery and at a resolution of 10 meters.

Seminar (Career Workshop) - “Northern Lights” and the role of subsurface in Carbon Capture and Storage

Speaker: Dr. Renata Meneguolo - Equinor, Stavanger (Norway) | 4 Aprile 4,30 PM ! Aula Arduino

04.03.2023

Capture and storage of carbon dioxide (CCS) is considered a crucial tool for the decarbonization of emissions from energy and hard-to-abate industries. Geoscience has a crucial role in the multidisciplinary assessment of the three building blocks of safe CO2 geological storage: containment, injectivity and capacity.

Seminar - Basement inversion of the European passive continental margin during Alpine collision: From nm-scale deformation processes to geodynamics

Speaker: Prof. Marco Herwegh, University of Bern, Institute of Geological Sciences (CH) - Tuesday, 28 March – 4:30 PM | Aula Arduino

28.03.2023

This talk deals with the exhumation history of continental granitoid crust of the former European passive continental margin, by showing regional scale fault zone patterns, their link to microscale deformation processes and the mechanical implications based on rock deformation experiments.

Tiny shakes: utilizing and modeling ambient seismic noise and induced seismic sequences

Speaker: Dr. Laura Ermert - ETH - Schweizerischer Erdbebendienst, Zürich (Switzerland) Tuesday, 7th March – 4:30 PM | Aula Arduino

07.03.2023

Ambient seismic noise is immensely useful in imaging and monitoring Earth’s interior. While applications of ambient noise seismology have become increasingly sophisticated, limitations imposed by its complex nature have also become apparent.
