Hélder Lopes, integrated researcher at Lab2PT/IN2PAST, professor and geographer at the University of Minho, was one of the guests on the RTP2 Sociedade Civil program, with the theme Meteorological Phenomena.

 

This year, spring arrived with Storm Martin. There were roofs ripped off, trees down and planes wheeled into the air. It was the fourth storm in March alone. How can we explain these increasingly frequent extreme phenomena?

 

Guests:

Pedro Garrett, PhD, Climate Change Researcher

Ângela Lourenço, Meteorologist at the Portuguese Institute of the Sea and Atmosphere (IPMA)

Hélder Silva Lopes, Professor of Geography, University of Minho and Researcher at Lab2PT UMinho
