    “Looking for a ready-to-use FAIR dataset with groundwater levels, signatures, and meteorological drivers to test new models and analysis methods to learn from groundwater level data? Why not try [the authors’] new Swiss Groundwater Database with almost 1,000 piezometers in diverse climatological and hydrogeological settings within Switzerland? 💡
    💧 Long groundwater level time series with frequent measurements
    💧 Meteorological drivers included
    💧Unique dataset in terms of hydrogeological data in an alpine setting
    … [They] hope [that they] can develop the database in the future with other variables (i.e., groundwater temperature, spring discharge, etc.) and welcome additions and collaborations to make this happen. 🌊…”

    “Groundwater is a vital component of the global supply of freshwater, playing a critical role for human populations, agriculture, and ecosystems. Due to the complex interactions between groundwater, surface water, climate, and human activity, these systems are frequently studied using advanced data analysis and modeling techniques. The effectiveness of these methods is generally enhanced by the availability and quality of data. In Switzerland, the focus area of this study, groundwater data is fragmented and lacks a standardized nationwide compilation. Consequently, the process of conducting nationwide studies with substantial sample sizes is both resource-intensive and time-consuming. In this paper, [they] introduce the Swiss Groundwater Database, a comprehensive compilation of groundwater time series and associated metadata throughout Switzerland. The current database consists of groundwater level data from 985 monitoring wells, which were completed with additional static and time-varying variables. The environmental characteristics and climate indices were compiled and determined for each monitoring well. The database is designed to facilitate and support large-sample hydrological research related to groundwater in Switzerland and beyond…”

  6. If you're a #Nationwide bank customer / member in the UK you might want to have a look at this for our current voting options:
    theguardian.com/business/2026/

    Looks like the existing board doesn't want him to join and set the automatic vote to be against him.. suspicious maybe? 🤔

  8. A federal judge in California on Tues issued a #nationwide block against the #Trump admin’s policy of #arrests at #ImmigrationCourts….

    Last year, #ICE began detaining #immigrants in #courthouse hallways across the country, sometimes moments after pleading their cases. The move raised alarm among attorneys & advocates who said the practice was turning #immigration courts from places of #DueProcess into zones of fear & punishing people who were following the rules.

  10. Anybody else bank with Nationwide and been invited to vote for the new board members?

    I'm not sure what to make of James Sherwin-Smith.

    The existing board are strongly recommended voting against him.

    My first thought was that it reminds me of when the far right try to get someone onto the board of the National Trust.

    But I can't find any far right connections, and on the face of it he seems to be a well qualified candidate.

    Thoughts?
