Successful fieldwork at the Naryn River in Kyrgyzstan

During the last week, EORC PI Florian Betz, EAGLE student Ariana Arguello-Cordero and FluBig team member Magdalena Lauermann from Catholic University Eichstätt-Ingolstadt have been on a field campaign in Kyrgyzstan to collect data for the FluBig project dedicated to the feedbacks of hydromorphology and vegetation across multiple scales. Task was mainly to collect UAV data for mapping large wood in the river as a critical component of biogeomorphic systems. Despite there was only a short time window of 5 days, the team managed to do 50 flights along with some ground based mapping what will be a crucial foundation for scaling up the results later using satellite imagery.
