IMG_3229_reservoir.jpg Most of Victoria and New South Wales in Australia has been in the grip of an unprecedented drought for the last ten years. River levels have dropped and reservoirs are at a fraction of their capacity. Lake Hume is the largest reservoir in Australia and was set up to provide irrigation water for farms further down the Murray Basin and drinking water for Adelaide. On the day this photograph was taken it was at 19.6% capacity. By the end of the summer of 2009 it dropped to 2.1 % capacity. Such impacts of the drought are liekly to worsen as a result of climate change.

IMG_4176_water restrictions.jpg Thirlmere reservoir in the Lake District UK, with a hosepipe ban in affect in the North West. United Utilities applied for the drought order, after the driest start to the year since 1929, with less than 50% of normal rainfall. The drought comes hot on the heals of the worst floods that Cumbria has ever seen, when in November 2009, United Utilities had to open the emergency valves to let water out, as the dam was in danger of collapsing when the water reached unprecendented high levels. Climate modelling shows that as the atmosphere warms we are more likely to move to a cycle of flood followed by drought.

IMG_0144_lava flow.jpg On 23 January 1973 a 2 km long fissure opened up spewing out lava forming a new vocanoe, Eldfell. The lava flow threatened Heimaey town, on Heimaey in the Westmand Islands off Iceland's south coast. The lava and ash buried and destroyed one third of the town and threatened the harbour, the life line for the islands. The whole island was evacuated. A novel technique of pumping sea water onto the lava front, solidified the flowing mass and diverted the lava flow away from the harbour. When the eruption ceased in June, Heimaey was 2km bigger. This shots shows the last house to survive before the lava halted with a less fortunate house still half revealed after it was destroyed by the lava flow.

IMG_4803_storm beach.jpg Much of the North Norfolk coast around Cley is protected by a shingle storm beach. Climate change is driving both sea level rise and increased stormy weather, leading to a great incidence of storms breaching the shinlge barrier. In the past, the council used buldozers to rebuild the shingle barrier, but have now abandoned it. This shot shows where the shingle barrier has been breached by a recent storm, revealing some of the old coastal defences.
