Cyanobacteria Suspected At The Lac de Pareloup - Aveyron

The Lac de Pareloup, located in the Aveyron region of France, is the fifth largest hydroelectric reservoir in the country in terms of area. The impounding of water from an EDF dam represents a pivotal element of the hydrological cycle. The presence of algae and suspected cyanobacteria was identified recently in the area. The spell of very hot weather is undoubtedly the cause of this phenomenon, which is occurring for the first time on this site.

15 Days After The Passage Of The DANA Over Valencia

Two people work in a workshop to try to fix their personal belongings, on November 13, 2024, in Paiporta, Valencia, Valencian Community (Spain). On October 29, a tropical storm (DANA) hit the province of Valencia. The country's worst cold spell in a century claimed 215 lives, and 23 people were reported missing. While the population tries to recover from the tragedy, the State Meteorological Agency (Aemet) has activated a new orange alert for the arrival of a new DANA that will arrive from this afternoon-evening to Valencia and could leave ''very heavy and persistent'' rainfall. Although this time the alert is orange and not red, many municipalities have taken preventive measures such as the suspension of classes or the installation of sandbags as a preventive measure against overflowing rivers.
