On September 24-25, the ICEREG project ICE-JAM modelling training for project participants took place. The training was conducted by experts from the Finnish Environment Institute (SYKE).
On September 17–19, 2024, the second ICEREG project expedition took place. LEI experts (Vytautas Akstinas, Serhii Nazarenko, Darius Jakimavičius, and Diana Šarauskienė) conducted cross-sectional and discharge measurements on the Mūša River. Data on valley surface elevations, riverbed geometry, flow velocity, and water surface slopes were collected at 25 cross-sections between Pantakonys and Ustukiai. Dense vegetation in the riverbed posed challenges, but clearer sections provided better measurement conditions. The collected data will support the calibration of the Mūša River hydrodynamic model and enhance understanding of ice jam floods.
The first field survey of the project “Ice-jam flood risk management in Latvian and Lithuanian regions with respect to climate change” (ICEREG) was accomplished on September 3-6, 2024.
