THE AVALON LAB

At the Avalon Lab, we see science as a process that requires innovation, passion, collaboration, and discovery. A process with the power to transform humanity's reality and ensure our survival... We provide scientific analysis and guidance to reduce risk, promote sustainable practices, and enhance resilience. We work with government bodies, academic institutions, civil society organizations, policy-makers, and practitioners to address challenges and inform decision-making for a sustainable future... Despite great advances in remote sensing technologies, accurate satellite information is sometimes challenged in tropical regions where dense vegetation prevents the instruments from retrieving reliable readings. We introduce a satellite-based landslide rainfall threshold for the country of Colombia by studying 4 years of rainfall measurements from The Climate Hazards Group Infrared Precipitation with Stations (CHIRPS) for 346 rainfall-triggered landslide events. In the absence of..
