🇵🇹🪧 Did Portugal really stop during the General Strike? Electricity: normal weekday levels, so we checked something else — seismic noise. See images to see what the ground vibrations in Lisbon linked to human activity show: #GreveGeral #Sismologia #IDL

Massive congrats to IDL's @JoaoCDuarte who was re-elected as President of the Tectonics and Structural Geology Division and Member of the Council of the European Geosciences Union (EGU)!

Students from @fcienciasulisboa visited ROV Luso — Portugal’s deep-sea robot capable of diving to 6000 m! Organized by NEG-FCUL, IDL, and DCTE, the visit offered a look at deep-ocean missions and how ROV Luso supports science and the extension of Portugal’s continental shelf🌊🇵🇹

📣 Mark your calendars! 📍Tomorrow, October 22 is Ciências Research & Innovation Day! See IDL's Pedro Matos Soares lecture on Climate Modelling and AI for a Resilient Earth, plus posters from all four research groups. ciencias.ulisboa.pt/pt/event…

From @IDLearth, STABLE tracks and classifies atmospheric blocking & subtropical ridge events — key patterns behind heatwaves and cold spells. Built in Python, open to all 🌍 🔗 GitHub: github.com/mikaslima/STABLE 📄 DOI: 10.1016/j.envsoft.2025.106729 #ClimateScience #OpenSource

🌋 Ever wondered how we can tell which way magma once flowed through the Earth? In a GJI study, Scientists on Maio Island (Cabo Verde) used magnetic fabric analysis to reconstruct it. doi.org/10.1038/s41586-025-0…

Confira o Carlos da Câmara, do IDL, em destaque no @ContAla, num debate sobre Sustentabilidade e Alterações Climáticas. Ele explica o conceito de hotspots climáticos e deixa algumas palavras para os céticos das alterações climáticas. youtube.com/watch?v=rDzTaZdX…

In a world visible only under a microscope, a story unfolds that's changing our planet. Like grains of sand that build beaches, these microscopic organisms are constructing something far greater. Follow us and reveal the secret heroes. (Illustrations by Rosie Sheward).

IDL hosted the latest meeting of @SUBMERSEproject, an #EUHorizon project using existing submarine cables to monitor the Earth’s systems. IDL contributes to data dissemination & integration, enabling real-time environmental and geohazard monitoring. #earthobservation

🌧️ IDL's Carlos da Câmara interviewed for @cnnportugal about Storm Gabrielle and its possible impacts. #stormgabrielle #hurricane cnnportugal.iol.pt/videos/te…

🦕🌍 O IDL marcou presença na Europeia dos Investigadores 2025 no @MUHNAC com duas atividades: 1️⃣ Gigantes do Museu – gigantismo em dinossauros e baleias. 2️⃣ Decifrando o Jurássico – pegadas & fósseis que revelam a vida em Portugal há 170–145 M.a. ✨Ciência aberta para todos

New in @Nature: research led by @IDLearth's @JoaoCDuarte (@ULisboa_) shows the ocean floor off Portugal is peeling away into the mantle. This rare process may explain the 1755 Lisbon M8.7 quake and could mark the initiation of a new subduction zone. nature.com/articles/s41561-0…

IDL's Carlos da Camara featured on Rádio Renascença, discussing climate extremes across Europe rr.pt/noticia/pais/2025/09/1…

IDL researcher, Ricardo Trigo, contributed to a World Weather Attribution study, featured in @guardian and @politico, showing that due to #climatechange, #wildfires are 40x more likely and 30x more intense than without #globalwarming. theguardian.com/environment/…

Coauthored by IDL's @alexkoberle, @Nature study shows Earth’s max safe underground CO₂ storage is ~1,460 Gt, and can only cool the atmosphere <1 °C. Without deep CO₂ cuts, we’ll hit that before 2200. nature.com/articles/s41586-0… #ClimateCrisis #ClimateActionNow #ClimateChange
