Wir setzen ein sichtbares Zeichen: Vor dem Hauptgebäude der Uni Greifswald wurde heute die orangefarbene Fahne gehisst. Sie steht für ein klares: Stopp Gewalt gegen Frauen und Mädchen 🤚🚫 Die UN-Kampagne „Orange the World“ macht seit 1991 auf dieses wichtige Thema aufmerksam. #OrangeTheWorld

I am teaching a course on ancient trees and tree rings at the NY Botanical Garden on Sunday, October 26th and Sunday, November 2nd.

We will learn about past environments, the amazing lives of trees, and what old trees tend to look like.

Poster from Joraine Schmoldt for this years GFÖ, title: "Diurnal patterns of leaf gas exchange and sap flow in Fagus sylvatica, Quercus robur, Larix decidua, and Pseudotsuga menziesii"

Poster from Joraine Schmoldt for this years GFÖ, title: "Diurnal patterns of leaf gas exchange and sap flow in Fagus sylvatica, Quercus robur, Larix decidua, and Pseudotsuga menziesii"

In the #FeMoPhys project, leaf gas exchange and #sapflow were measured to investigate the temporal lag between stem water transport and leaf gas exchange, while also testing sap flow as a tool to estimate leaf-level gas exchange in mature trees. Preliminary results were presented at this years GFÖ!

🌲 A study from Berlin-Brandenburg shows that mixed forests adapt better to droughts than pine monocultures – even if they have lower growth rates. More biodiversity = more resilience in hot, dry summers.

Poster from Daniel Harnisch for the GFÖ, about soil micro climate

In this study, we attempt to shift the perspective on near-ground forest microclimate towards smaller organisms. We aimed to quantify how ground cover type further modifies air temp., air humidity and soil temp. on small scales. Our initial findings were presented at this year's GFÖ in Würzburg!

Last week, the international student excursion to the high Tatra mountains (Slovakia) took place. We explored the mountains and talked about natural and cultural landscape-forming processes. Among other things, there was a 20km hike, an overnight stay in a mountain hut, and a visit to an ice cave.

Ich habe vor 1 Jahr mal dieses Starter-Kit erstellt.
Es wurde viel genutzt...und dann ist es etwas in der Versenkung verschwunden.

Jetzt wurde es wieder vielfach geteilt 👌

👉 Aber es gibt mittlerweile viele neue Accounts, die da noch fehlen.
Habt ihr Ergänzungen? Bitte DruKo, ich füge dann zu. 🫶

I was shocked when I first saw these results from standard climate models used in IPCC reports: for high emissions, the Atlantic overturning circulation #AMOC shuts down in all 9 models that ran past 2100, and is well on the way to shutdown by 2100.
Our paper on that is out today.🧵

How do tropical #trees deal with droughts? The answer is published today in @science.org

Our pantropical #treering analysis revealed 2.5% growth reduction during #drought years. Yet, growth declined by >10% in 1/4 of 500 study sites, and in hotter & drier regions.

Klimawandel: Folgen für die Ostsee Die Ostsee ist eines der sich am schnellsten erwärmenden Meere. Algen, Bakterien und Quallen können im warmen Wasser Oberhand gewinnen – und das Ökosystem Meer empfindlich stören.

Letzte Woche war die @zdfde.bsky.social -Redaktion aus Schwerin zu Besuch @ostseeforschung.bsky.social , um für das #heutejournal mit verschiedenen IOW-Forschende über #Klimawandelfolgen für die #Ostsee zu sprechen, die grade jetzt in der #Urlaubssaison relevant sind.
