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.

Happy to share my impressions from this year’s summer school of the Extremes_WSL program and SwissForestLab on «Forests & Extremes – crisis or transition?» in Davos. I was teaching how difficult it is to forecast the impact of #ClimateChangerelated extremes on #biodiversity.

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.

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! republik.ch/2024/09/05/akt…

The DME group went on one of the most beautiful panoramic hikes in Switzerland from Melchsee-Frutt to Trübsee with fantastic views of the Alps, floral highlights and passing four mesmerizing mountain lakes.🏔☀ A memorable day filled with fun, laughter and team spirit.❤️

Morgen (mittags, abends) gebe ich auf SRF Auskunft über Zustand und Lösungen der Biodiversitätskrise im Rahmen der Biodiversitäts-Abstimmung. Warum Arten aussterben haben @FlorianAltermann und ich in diesem informativen Artikel von Esther Widmann (unten, Paywall) erläutert.

This year's social-science day of the WSL research unit “Land Change Science” with hiking, guided forest tour near #Basel, poster presentations, dinner & lots of rain.☔️The forester showed that #beech has been dying back massively due to increased frequency & severity of drought.
