This review complements very nicely another recent review on analysing seasonalities doi.org/10.1016/j.ears…

👇Check out our latest Speleo QUEST study in @GCA_Journal. A fantastic piece of work by Ingrid Lindeman, featuring @SFMBreitenbach +Maximilian Hansen We show that organics in cave waters control the capture of metals by #speleothems with climatic significance. authors.elsevier.com/a/1e6Th3p4ZMsL…

Also shortly discussing the potential of recurrence plot based methods for seasonality analysis. doi.org/10.1016/j.ears…

Always love stumbling across this 1907 newspaper advert posted by Ernest Shackleton seeking volunteers for his Antarctic expedition. He certainly didn’t pull his punches & the leadership lessons from are as relevant today as they were then. #adventure #leadership #resilience

Feeling super positive about our latest #speleothem research trip to Whakapunake. The mountain hosts phenomenal caves and we're just getting started on this MBIE smart idea with Sebastian Hoepker. P.s. we have a #phd open to work with us DM if interested.

Just returned from my first fieldtrip ever. It was an incredible experience: As a researcher who spends most of his time with theories, it offered entirely new perspectives. As a person, it was as demanding as it was enriching. Big thanks to @SFMBreitenbach & The Leverhulme Trust!

Ein Zufallsfund beim Bahnstreckenbau: Die Bleßberghöhle in Thüringen, eine der spektakulärsten Tropfsteinhöhlen in 🇩🇪. Jetzt gibt's ein Buch darüber, unter Mitarbeit von PIK-Paläoklimaforscher Norbert Marwan. Vorstellung heute Abend 19:00 👇 MDR THÜRINGEN mdr.de/thueringen-jou…

Happy to have the new book on the Bleßberg cave finally in my hands … with chapter on our palaeoclimate research. thueringer-hoehlenverein.de/media/

We suggest correction scheme for analysis of irregularly sampled time series dx.doi.org/10.1103/PhysRe…

Wir freuen uns schon auf die vielen neugierigen Kinder! Bei uns kann man Tropfsteinen beim Wachsen zuschauen. x.com/PIK_Klima/stat…

Last preparations for our speleo booth for the #LNDW22 this evening at Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research PIK !

#Klimawissenschaft und #Archäologie: Untergang des antiken #Mayapan wurde wahrscheinlich durch #Dürre ausgelöst - neue Studie u.a mit PIK's Norbert Marwan: "Schon damals beeinflusste sich wandelndes #Klima die menschliche #Zivilisation ganz erheblich." 👉pik-potsdam.de/de/aktuelles/n…

A Nature Communications paper suggests that drought may have led to an increase in civil conflict followed by political collapse in Mayapan, the capital of the Maya in the Yucatán Peninsula in the 13th and 14th centuries CE. go.nature.com/3ofnfrj

Our last study on climate induced social unrest and societal destabilisation in the postclassic Maya now published in NatComm nature.com/articles/s4146…

New paper out! Atmospheric patterns in the mid-latitudes give rise to synchronized extreme weather events around the globe. We propose a novel method to distinguish dynamical regimes of atmospheric variability: doi.org/10.1063/5.0109… (1/4)
