Es wird wieder heiß, es brennt allerorts, aber auch hier gibt es ja immer wieder einige, aus der Fraktion „früher gab es auch schon heiße Sommer“. Hier ist die Antwort darauf, denn ich diskutiere das nicht mehr. #Klima #Klimakrise

A recent study addresses the long-standing energy balance closure problem within ecosystem flux measurements 🌳 By using datasets from ICOS and NEON, the study shows that a substantial part of this energy imbalance is caused by incomplete energy accounting. Read more: www.icos-cp.eu/news-and-eve...
Postdoc in Ecohydrology and Forest Resilience We are seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Research Scholar to work on collaborative research investigating the interplay between bedrock properties and forest resilience in the Rocky Mountains. See announcement: go.ncsu.edu/pdannouncement
I am a bit sad I had to attend #EGU26 online but very happy how @zalf.bsky.social WG ECO presented their work:
@zalf.bsky.social No lab? No Tools? No problem! We present the #MonksHillLab (#ZALF_ECO) "Lab on Wheels", a fully autark (solar powered) maker space allowing to construct (e.g. solder & program) and validate sensors presented in our Handbook (zenodo.org/records/1794...)! Field test follow soon! 🚀
Finanziell ist akademische "Karriere" 1 katastrophale Entscheidung. In meinem Fall: erst Teilzeit, dann Erwerbsarbeitslosigkeit. Mehrere Umzüge. Horrende Pendelkosten. 2 Wohnungen seit 2017. Aber klar, Lars, lass mal uns Akademiker_innen noch länger arbeiten lassen bis zur Winz-Rente! So attraktiv.
Thank you to the Peat4People project for inviting us from WG Peatland Science to support upcoming GHG measurements in African peatlands. Thanks to externally funded PhD thesis work by Hauke Schmülling and collaboration with @zalf.bsky.social we provide low-cost chambers and knowledge..
🌡️ For the third year in a row, every day in 2025 was more than 1°C warmer than the 1850–1900 pre-industrial level. Over a third of days were above 1.5°C. ⬇️

Heute gedenken wir der Opfer des Nationalsozialismus und der Befreiung von Auschwitz-Birkenau am 27.01.1945. Erinnern heißt kämpfen! Gerade heute, wo rechte Kräfte erstarken und Gedenkarbeit unter Druck steht. Nie wieder ist jetzt und darf nicht zur leeren Worthülse werden!
This isn't great...
Female scientists have to wait longer for their articles to be reviewed than their male colleagues. An analysis of 36.5 million papers in the life sciences shows that for females it took 115 days to reach a decision, compared to 101 days for men journals.plos.org/plosbiology/... @plosbiology.org
Deutsche Bahn once more gave everything in their power to inconvenience passengers. 2 days, 2 trips: total delay of ~ 5 h. At least the sight was kind of nice
Comment in @nature.com: "Food will be more affordable — if we double funds for agriculture research now" www.nature.com/articles/d41... A global drop in public and private investment in agricultural science in the past four decades is partly to blame for high food prices, an analysis reveals.

Was Ihr tun könnt, wenn Ihr nicht mitdemonstrieren konntet, aber das Anliegen unterstützt? Teilt Demo-Berichte, macht dadurch die Demo bekannter, verbreitet Zuversicht. &: Klickt die Beiträge auch! Das signalisiert Medien, dass das Thema auf Interesse stößt. Positives verstärken! #WirSindDieTöchter

So the bad news is that impacts of_extreme_droughts worsened dramatically over time, but the good news is that these systems were not progressively impaired by_moderate_droughts. And, for us, it's good news that we have published these findings! Stay tuned; many more DN manuscripts are in progress.
...while the effects of droughts that were extreme (i.e., 1 in 100 year events) compounded over time, perennial grasslands and shrublands were more resilient to less extreme droughts. That is, drought-related reductions in plant growth did not magnify over more years of moderate drought. (2/3)
