Are you interested in the Asian monsoon? Speleothems? Did you always wonder what really happened to the winter monsoon during the Holocene??? 🧐🧐 Look no further!! ⬇️⬇️⬇️😎 nature.com/articles/s4146…

We present a 8ka BP stalagmite from Southeast Asia. It helps to reconcile conflicting evidence on the past evolution of the Asian winter and summer monsoon. Stoked to finally see this published!

There's more happening to weather extremes now than can be explained by thermodynamics, i.e. everything getting warmer, evaporation increasing, the atmosphere holding more energy and water. Also changing: jet stream, polar vortex, planetary waves & Atlantic ocean circulation.

Heard about the new PLOS journal on complex systems PLOS Complex Systems? Have a look! plos.io/CSopen #OpenAccess

In our new paper, we travel 5000 yrs back into the past to reconstruct mid-Holocene rainfall seasonality and El Niño Southern Oscillation in the tropical Pacific. Congrats to Cinthya Nava and everyone involved, happy to see this one out :) doi.org/10.1002/dep2.2…

LGM caused much harsher climate conditions in high altitudes compared to lowlands in the Caucasus. We show that changes in seasonal precipitation and vegetation were spatially diverse allowing for the formation of refugia. nature.com/articles/s4324…

We are hiring! We have multiple openings for Project Associates at the Centre of Excellence for Studying Critical Transitions in Complex Systems. Please refer to the attachments for details. To apply, write a mail along with your CV to [email protected].

1/n 🌍Biodiversity loss & climate extremes: is it a vicious cycle? Our new paper in Earth's Future reviews this question by bridging ecological and climatological perspectives. agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… See 🧵…

Thanks for the warm welcome! Excited to join @Rsc4Earth & Sebastian Sippel to do some cool research funded by #LivingPlanetFellowship ESA Science. We will study how #atmosphericrivers drive weather extremes & how these translate to Earth surface impacts using #complexnetworks 🌍

Had a fantastic time at this week‘s #IARC the CW3E Scripps in La Jolla! With all the great research on #atmosphericrivers, one could sometimes even briefly forget about that scenic beach right outside… #ARscience #ARNETLAB @Rsc4Earth

New PhD position available! As a part of new Marie Skłodowska-Curie Doctoral Network (INITIATE), we are looking a candidate to join our group at GFZ for debris flow research. The candidate will work with Jean Braun and myself. Please RT if you know someone may feel interested!

Atmospheric rivers are causing floods not only in the US but all around the globe 🌧️ Excited to see that BBC is covering our research on tracking & analysing global #atmosphericrivers and their historical trends. Paper currently under review - stay tuned!

To get 2 reviewers per paper at Environmental Data Science, I have to invite >20. Meanwhile, I get daily review requests I have to decline—already committed to project and tenure reviews + journal duties. So I can't blame anyone, but how do we fix this unsustainable system??? #PeerReview

Anyone going to European Geosciences Union General Assembly this year? There will be a dedicated session for #AtmosphericRivers!

Excellent #DataCube overview paper and perspective by David Montero Loaiza !

New data set for Atmospheric Rivers: PIKART!💨 These narrow bands of moisture in the lower atmosphere act as conveyer belts of water vapour and typically carry more than twice the flow of the Amazon River. pik-potsdam.de/en/news/latest…
