Resolution matters: Extreme temperatures in populated areas e.g. in India can be underestimated by up to 10°C, a new paper by Lukas Brunner et al shows. High-res climate models (<10 km) reveal that important details about temperature and precipitation extremes are hidden at lower resolutions. 🌡️ 🧪 #heatwave #climatechange

👩‍🌾 #Organic farming vs. #nature conservation? New #study by #CLICCS researcher Luisa Gensch shows: Smart planning avoids land-use conflicts. Only 1% of EU farmland would need strict protection. #agriculture 🧪 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/09640568.2025.2504520#d1e187

🔎 Neugierig? Am Donnerstag, 12. Juni, gibt es wieder „Wissen vom Fass“. Das heißt leicht verdauliche Forschung in Hamburgs Kneipen, jeweils um 20 Uhr. Und wir machen mit. 🌏 Kommt vorbei, der Eintritt ist frei!

🌡️ Europe’s #heat extremes won’t stop – even at net-zero emissions. Each year of delay locks in hotter and more frequent extremes for centuries. Mediterranean heatwaves could even be 30x more likely if the Paris Agreement is reached ten years late. 🧪 https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1748-9326/addee4

🌊 Planetary Talk: Meer erleben...
Umweltministerin a.D. Steffi Lemke, CLICCS-Forscher Dirk Notz & Klimabotschafterin Birte Lorenzen-Herrmann sprechen am Montag, 2. Juni, 19 Uhr, in der St.-Katharinen-Kirche über den Zustand unserer Meere. Eintritt frei! 👉 http://uni-hamburg.de/nachhaltigkeit/aktivitaeten/sustainability-week.html

🌍✨ Yippie! CLICCS wird für weitere 7 Jahre als Exzellenzcluster an der Universität Hamburg gefördert! Mehr als 200 internationale Wissis erforschen, welche Klimazukünfte plausibel sind - und wie sich gewünschte Klimazukünfte realisieren lassen. @hereon @MPI_Meteo

🌍✨ Yippee! CLICCS will receive funding for another seven years as a Cluster of Excellence at the University of Hamburg! Over 200 international researchers are exploring which climate futures are plausible—and how we can work towards achieving the desired ones. @hereon @MPI_Meteo

🫨 New studies from the University of Hamburg show how #climate change-induced ice melt can trigger earthquakes. In Antarctica and the Baltic Sea region, dormant faults could be reactivated, with serious implications like for nuclear waste storage. More info: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bor.12689 https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1029/2024TC008464

New study from #CLICCS researcher Jakob Deutloff finds no strong evidence for a tipping point chain reaction from carbon-cycle elements like #permafrost or the #Amazon.
However, 9 of 16 tipping points could still be crossed under current policies.
#Climate action remains key. 🧪 https://www.cliccs.uni-hamburg.de/about-cliccs/news/2025-news/2025-04-14-tipping-points.html @MPI_Meteo @uniofexeter @gsi_exeter@bird.makeup

⁉️ Has the German #coal phase-out really reduced #emissions? Only if EU allowances are deleted. Without coordination, effects may shift or even backfire.

🌍 🎨 How can art make climate change and science tangible?

With “Portraits of Climate”, scientists and artists explore this question together. The exhibition can be visited at the University Museum in Hamburg. Learn more and join Dr. Anna Pagnone for a virtual tour here: https://www.cliccs.uni-hamburg.de/press/dialogue/art-science/exhibition.html

Also don't miss guided tours through the exhibition at the "Long Night of Museums" on April 26! More information: https://www.langenachtdermuseen-hamburg.de/museen/universitaetsmuseum-hamburg

📷 Snapshot Seychelles No. 7
Encroaching seas are a constant threat along the coasts. Traditionally, houses in the Seychelles are therefore built on stilts. But in recent days, more and more responsibility is transferred to government, replacing many of the traditional practices and individual initiatives to improve resilience, reports climate adaptation expert Beate Ratter.

Wie kann Ethnografie die Forschung an globaler Umweltpolitik bereichern? Was bedeutet Klimagerechtigkeit eigentlich? Und wie können wir uns Hoffnung in Bezug auf den Klimawandel bewahren?

Solchen Fragen und mehr widmet sich die Veranstaltungsreihe „Ethnografie und Environmental Humanities“ der Universität Hamburg ab dem kommenden Donnerstag.

Zu allen Terminen und mehr Infos: https://www.kulturwissenschaften.uni-hamburg.de/ekw/ueber-das-institut/institutskolloquium.html

🌎 📣 „Hamburger Perspektiven zur Klimaforschung“- öffentliche Vorlesungsreihe startet morgen!
Jeweils Donnerstags um 18:15 berichten Forschende über unterschiedliche Aspekte der Klimaforschung. Mehr Informationen und alle Termine: https://www.zfw.uni-hamburg.de/oeffentliche-vortraege/programm-sose/01-hamburger-perspektive-zur-klimaforschung.html

🌊👩‍🔬 Girls' Day 2025

Heute durften wir im Rahmen des Girls‘ Day Mädchen am CEN und Institut für Meereskunde willkommen heißen. Mit Experimenten und Messungen am Eis-Tank konnten sie hautnah erfahren, was den Beruf einer Klimaforscherin ausmacht.

#GirlsDay #WomeninSTEM

Im aktuellen CEN Newsletter geht es darum, wie KI für bessere Sturmflut-Prognosen sorgt, welchen Preis eine Abschwächung der AMOC hätte und wie Tiden die CO2-Speicherung in den Meeren beeinflussen. Jetzt abonnieren und nie wieder etwas verpassen: https://www.cen.uni-hamburg.de/press/newsletter.html

📷 Snapshot Seychelles No 6
🌴 The Coco de Mer is a botanical wonder, a case of "island gigantism." This palm species has separate male and female plants and is found only on the Seychelles, reaching heights of over 30 meters, #CLICCS geographer Beate Ratter reports.

❄️ A recent @CNN@x-activitypub-bridge.deno.dev article by Laura Paddison features Prof. Dirk Notz from #CLICCS. Arctic temperatures are soaring, up to 20°C above normal, leading to the lowest February sea ice levels recorded. “We can wipe out entire landscapes.”

Safer shores: The global #tsunami early warning project led by Joern Behrens has been recognized as a #UNESCO #OceanDecade Project. The Goal is to ensure broad access to reliable tsunami risk assessments, ultimately improving disaster preparedness and response.
