Had an excellent exchange with the National Assembly Futures Institute (NAFI), the think tank of South Korea’s National Assembly. Together, we aim to build resilient, sustainable future scenarios for Korea. #NAFI#FutureofKorea#NationalAssembly @WSL_research @WSL_DME
@LabSpiritu The top of a hill does not have a very different seasonality than the bottom. Seasonality presents large scale patterns such as continentality for example.
@LabSpiritu Thats not an error. I assume what confuses you is that there is no strong gradient with topography visible in the variables representing climate seasonality. But why would you expect one?
Despite island radiations being well studied, the modes of #Speciation are not fully understood. Here the most diverse Canary Island plant, Aeonium, is investigated for allopatric & sympatric speciation!

Shock to the system 🥶
Unusually strong cold is pouring south out of the Arctic into Europe right now. This is an ideal setup for deep fresh snow accumulations in the Alps and flooding in Central Europe.
This is about as cold as it gets this early in September.
Exzellent recherchiert und geschrieben: Fakten werden verdreht, relativiert, die Folgen geleugnet. Dabei ist der schlechte Zustand der Biodiversität wissenschaftlich breit belegt und notwendige Massnahmen zur Verbesserung sind klar!

Using #CHELSA-TraCE21k #paleoclimate data to analyze pollen records from Slovenia and Croatia we show how #climate shifts and human activity shaped the vegetation of the Northern Dinaric Karst over the last 10,000 years. @WSL_DME @WSL_research https://t.co/4taleuFj2Z
Ohne Natur können wir nicht existieren. Es braucht daher viel mehr politischen Willen, um den Artenverlust in Österreich zu stoppen. Besonders von der nächsten Regierung! #biodiversity
Higher resolution #climate data boosts 🌨️#snow cover❄️accuracy in models by up to 52%! This shows the importance of fine-scale climate in #climatechange impact studies, especially in 🏔️mountainous regions like Switzerland. @WSL_DME @WSL_research @SLFDavos https://t.co/FT9EvwoVzk
🌿#Cloud_forests🌱, nestled in the #mountains "Goldilocks zone" with constant water supply and moderate temperatures, are some of the most #biodiversity rich ecosystems on Earth. @WSL_DME@WSL_DME

Starkniederschläge und Worst-Case Szenarien
Interview im heutigen @srfnews Tagesgespräch zur Einordnung der intensiven Gewitter dieses Sommers und zu unserer neuen Forschung am @usys_ethzh der @ETH zu Worst-Case Szenarien für Wetterextreme im Klimawandel

Google is changing the weather forecasting game.
Plus they've created a Python library to make their model available.
Here's what you need to know about it:
The value of ‘wasting time’ on deep thinking is often overlooked in a scientific ecosystem increasingly tainted by Wall Street’s productivity mindset.

@Weltwoche@PhGut Ausser dass das ich das nicht gesagt habe. Die EU will Verbrenner verbieten.
Das ganze Interview geht um Lösungen, um Anreize, um Lenkungsabgaben, um Innovation.
Aber ich weiss, das interessiert @PhGut@Weltwoche nicht.
